It is very common in software development to work on things planned to be released in the same version, but as not everything is rosy, unforeseen events happen and some things should no longer be released in the same version and it is necessary to separate them. Some version control processes can be complex and pulling things apart manually is a painful task. Thanks to Linus Torvalds, creator of git, we can do this very simply with just a few commands that we will see in this article.
