Description
Hey!
I effectively want to split out part of a file, instead of splitting out the common parts of two files.
Currently I have bundle.js, which contains everything used on the site. There is some checkout specific logic there that I only want on the checkout, so I want to split that stuff out into bundle-checkout.js, but then run both bundle.js and bundle-checkout.js in the checkout.
With factor-bundle by default, I would be running these files on the main site:
- bundle-common.js
- bundle.js
And these on the checkout:
- bundle-common.js
- bundle.js
- bundle-checkout.js
It's pointless for me to have both bundle-common.js and bundle.js!
The best solution I've found so far is to add `require('./main')` to the top of the input `bundle-checkout.js`, which would mean that `bundle.js` is effectively an empty file and I can include `bundle-common.js` by itself, but then that generates a junk file.

lib.js:
``` js
module.exports = 'lib';
```
main.js:
``` js
var lib = require('./lib');
console.log(lib);
```
checkout.js:
``` js
require('./main');
console.log('special checkout logic');
```
And then the command:
```
browserify main.js checkout.js -p [ factor-bundle -o junk.js -o bundle-checkout.js ] -o bundle.js
```
Is there any way to do this without the `require('./main')` and the useless `junk.js` file?
Thanks, and sorry for the long question! I'll turn this into an article once it's been figured out so that nobody asks it again :)
