Some combination of git reset HEAD~1 and one of the 'graphical' tools like tig that let you pick lines. That lets you quickly break up a patch where you want to move things, then you can reorder the patches to put them next to where you want to move changes to and rely on git rebase -i with f or s to squash them. Figuring out optimum path to the eventual break up you want is a skill though. When doing this sort of mangling I tend to get it wrong and shout at my computer a few times a day ;) Then git rebase --abort and try again. End result is that you end up with coherent series and it looks like you wrote perfect code in nice steps from the start! Jonathan
