Tips for splitting up package in github?

[Kirkwood West]

I want to release part of my scripts/classes that would be useful to others in a seperate github repo. I'm unsure how to really do this. So I come here to discuss...

Basically, I have my main script with my core package...

pom.xml
com.kirkwoodwest...

and then i think i would make another project with a new pom.xml but somehow include the same com.kirkwoodwest... but only have some of the files from the com.kirkwoodwest module.

Yeah probably not gonna work like this...
maybe something like com.kirkwoodwest.common that both packages the it would exist in one and be referenced by the other.

Totally lost here on this one...been googling a bit and time to google some more. Maybe there are some language terms i can search for that would be helpful.

For now I come up with quick and dirty solution and made some shell files to copy the data between the branches. Manual migration I guess. Should do the trick... although it would be cool to figure out how to do it in github.
