Help: split

Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.

hg split [OPTION]... [-r REV] [FILE]...

split a changeset into smaller changesets

By default, split the current revision by prompting for all its hunks to be redistributed into new changesets.

Use --rev to split a given changeset instead.

If file patterns are specified only files matching these patterns will be considered to be split in earlier changesets. The files that doesn't match will be gathered in the last changeset.
