Cherry Pie Extension

This extension adds a button to Github's Pull Request page that extracts files from one branch and stage them into a new one. That way you can submit PRs with minimum relevant changes, even if you didn't plan ahead.

But why?
Honestly, you’ve worked hard on that feature, but when you opened the pull request you can clearly see it would've made more sense to split it into multiple smaller updates, each with its own PR.

Since your commit history is unreadable, you can't use git cherry-pick and wish you could go back in time and turn it into something that plays nicely in git log.

Now you can.
