Problem
Sometimes when I start a small fix, I think that is not necessary to put it on a new branch maybe with one commit should be enough. But then, I realize that should be necessary a bigger effort to fix it completely. So, I’d need a new branch. But I’ve already committed one o two commits. What can I do?
Solution
Create a new branch on your working directory:
git branch not-so-simple-feature
Move the master pointer two, three or n commits back (two on this example):
git reset --hard HEAD~2
Now you can move to the new branch and continue working.
git checkout not-so-simple-feature
