PR Splitting Flow

Split a big PR / branch in multiple smaller chunks.

1. Get the common ancestor

   `sh BASE=$(git merge-base origin/develop HEAD) `

2. Get a patch with all changes

   `sh git format-patch --stdout $BASE..HEAD > my-feature.patch `

3. Create a new empty branch based off the BASE

   `sh gco -b my-feature-a $BASE `

4. Apply the patch, leaving working tree uncommitted

   `sh git apply --index my-feature.patch git reset `

5. Stage whatever you want with your IDE or interactively add

   `sh git add -p `

6. Commit

   `sh git commit -m "Topic A: ..." ``
