C - cherry pick. In real projects, please do not do such a thing. If a file needs to be ignored from being commited, add it to the ignore list, if a feature is too big and created too many commits, you should break it down and have multiple branches, or if you insist on a single branch, develop in such a way that it's easy to understand the progression of things. Rebase and cherry picking should be highly discouraged because they break the history.
