Not seeing the docs but when in doubt refer to the code.

First of all I think it's a bit unintuitive that boost::algorithm::split swaps with target, I would've assumed it appended. The fact that it in effect clears target makes it cumbersome to incrementally split into a destination, as you need a new temporary for every call to split, and then explicitly transfer everything over to your final destination. The docs do mention the behavior as a note ( which I presume is precisely because it's a bit unintuitive ). My question then naturally becomes why does split behave like this?
Where is boost::algorithm::split documented ?
As changing the behavior would be a breaking change, do you think it would be unreasonable to have a split_append?
