From the March 28th, 2024 Hallway Hangout

Need for more granular exports when moving parts of a site between environments. Like being able to only export one template (override the one on disk) instead of always having to export the entire theme

Research direction

No files or tests are identified. Start by tracing the existing full-theme export flow, then determine how an individual template or pattern can be selected and written to the theme's files. Done means a single selected item can be exported without exporting the entire theme and can override its disk version.
