Splitting a large commit after having created a PR

Scenario

Working on a feature branch, let's say "feature/local-notification". Once finished, one commits all the files and sends the PR to let's say "develop" on a remote repositiory used by your team.

When a reviewer comes to check the PR they announce they are unable to comment on diffs or view all the diffs on Github as Github's diff limit was reached.

You are asked to (kindly) split the commit...

Below I will outline the (what I think is the best and most flexible) method of doing this (there are perhaps other ways depending on your situation).

OrbitControls modification for Ejecta

To use OrbitControls for Ejecta you will need to modify the OrbitControls.js where touchmove is looking for variable element.clientHeight and element.clientWidth. These are read-only properties of Element which are not available in Ejecta.

If you are passing the default document Element using controls = new THREE.OrbitControls( camera );, then you can replace the following lines with the innerWidth and innerHeight properties of window. (window == document are basically same element in Ejecta).


function touchmove( event ) {

		if ( scope.enabled === false ) { return; }
