When I have multiple changes in one file and I plan to divide these into separate/multiple commits, I always rely on git’s patching capabilities to finish the job.

It’s as simple as running git add --patch in your terminal then you go into a series of questions of whether you want to add/stage a specific change or not.

The feature I’m very thankful for is it allows us to edit a chunk further and there’s no limit to this.
