> Finally you figure out how the shared part should work in the final wip. When you try to reorder the commits the changes in the shared part changes order with leads to merge conflicts when rebasing/reordering/squashing that needs to be solved. An alternative approach is to create a new branch off of master (or whatever the base branch is) and take the diff of the HEAD of your branch with your work in progress commits and stage the hunks of the diff to make a commit that contains a logical change (and repeat the process for the remaining parts of the diff). The git apply command us very useful in this regard.
