I wish I had the courage and the time to go through my old big patch

I had asked at that time to this list if someone knew a patch splitter
GUI, that would enable to split a patch into several (sub)patches by
graphically selecting which changes would go to each (sub)patch.
Maybe there has been some progress on this, or some new well-informed
readers?


I'm not aware of such a thing, but what works pretty well for me is
to use stgit and selectively pull chunks to patches earlier in the
series and merge the top again.

So its something like:

- do lots of changes, commit on top of stack
- open in editor, pop patch
- create new patch, copy stuff from open editor
- commit
- go to top of stack again, merge
- repeat from step 2 until patch at top is empty

Its works quite fast since the merging goes really painlessly.
