git split
 	Extract a new, synthetic project history from the
	history of the <prefix> subtree of <local-commit>, or of
	HEAD if no <local-commit> is given.  The new history
	includes only the commits (including merges) that
	affected <prefix>, and each of those commits now has the
	contents of <prefix> at the root of the project instead
	of in a subdirectory.  Thus, the newly created history
	is suitable for export as a separate git repository.
so git subtree core
 # split all commit relative with in /subdir into a new branch "tmpbranch"
 git subtree split --prefix subdir -b tmpbranch
 # push this branch to new repo
 git push git@github.com/xxx/newrepo tmpbranch:main
one shortcut cmd do same of above
