There is a bite point where you don’t need to use the brake at all, just clutch and accelerator in perfect harmony. With practice you’ll be able to stay perfectly still, or inch forwards or backwards even on steep hills.
It does get tiring if you have to hold it too long though.

Was gonna explain, but SugarSnack already said it.
You hold the clutch at the bite point before you even reach the gas.
It takes practice, but even on the steeper hills it works fine. It all happens in under a second and you’re off.
Cars that auto throttle with clutch make this even easier to do because you don’t have to worry about stalling either.

SugarSnack mentioned something different. This is not applicable to all cars. Plenty of cars would stall out before getting enough forward momentum to beat gravity, without a push from the gas. Of course if your clutch acts as clutch AND gas, then you can do this no problem.
