How to split vendor files from commit

When committing go code to a gitlab project, splitting the vendor dependencies, makes sense to reduce the browser changes tab render. So here is a quick way to commit one code commit and one vendor. I will use AWK to separate the code from vendor files and create two commits.

First I go to the master commit, my other commits are on top of this commit.

git reset --soft master

Magic:

git commit $(git status |awk '/^[\t]{1}.*:/ {if (index($NF, "vendor") == 0 && $NF != "go.mod" && $NF != "go.sum") {printf "%s ", $NF}}') -m 'feature code'

git status - show all the files changed since the master commit

/^[\t]{1}}.*:/ - filter from status the tracked changed files, in fact they start with five spaces

if (index($NF, "vendor") == 0 && $NF != "go.mod" && $NF != "go.sum") - filter out vendor files and the go.mod and go.sum files.

{printf "%s ", $NF} - print files in sequence without new lines

Now commit the vendor files:

git commit go.mod go.sum vendor/* -m 'vendor files'

Before pushing use:

git diff HEAD^ HEAD^^ --name-only

to verify the committed files
