Keep git history when splitting a file

The general rule to maintaining blame history is to make a separate move commit first before any edits. It has been my experience that this allows git blame to work without the need for the -C option. So in the case of splitting the file up into new files, this can be done in two commits:

1. Duplicate the original to the new destinations, making sure to delete the original
2. Remove the extra sections from the duplicated files

In the example provided, this would be:

cp a.php b.php
mv a.php c.php
git add a.php b.php c.php
git commit
vim b.php  # delete everything but 1 function
vim c.php  # delete the 1 function
git add b.php c.php
git commit
