Hello,

My problem:

I am a code reviewer, I have a situation in GIT:

- before: a.txt

Then a developer decided to split the content of a.txt into 2 files
and add a few changes all in one commit:

- after: b.txt + few changes and c.txt + few changes

Is there an easy way to see:

1. what came to b from a?
2 .what came to c from a?
3. all extra changes apart from just moving stuff?

A specific command would help a lot.

A certain policy/workflow that prevents from problem like this (when
there is no way to visually diff the changes) would also help.

Thanks,
