> `git reset` by itself doesn't split a commit AFAIK.

Git reset splits a single commit, into two "things", another commit with the first part and a second part that is put into a version prepared for a commit (--soft), prepared for further editing (--mixed) or thrown away (--hard). To me that counts as commit splitting, but it may not match with JJ terms. Also splitting into two commits with the same commit message doesn't sound quite useful to me, so the default of Git two require a second commit message is sensible to me.

Ok, but then what was your point?
