can I add 3 different awk statement make a single awk statement first statement output using the second statement and second statement output using the third awk statement
Every post you have submitted has different requirements for which fields are to be printed on which lines.

There is no pattern I can see that tells us which input fields should be printed on which output lines for an input file that contains N fields. When there were 20 input fields, it appeared that you wanted fields 1-10 printed followed by field 11-20. When there were 6 input fields, first you said you wanted fields 1-3 printed followed by fields 4-6; but now when there are 6 input fields you want fields 1-2 printed followed by fields 3-6.

Please go back to the beginning and explain clearly in English how your script is supposed to determine how many sets of output lines are to be created for the input lines and which input fields are supposed to appear in each set of output lines. Without a clear specification of what you want (other than saying that every suggestion provided is not producing the right output, even though it exactly matches the sample output you said you wanted), we are all wasting our time.

AND, PLEASE use CODE tags when displaying sample input, sample output, and sample code segments.

GIT-COLUMN(1)                                                       Git Manual                                                       GIT-COLUMN(1)

NAME

       git-column - Display data in columns

SYNOPSIS

       git column [--command=<name>] [--[raw-]mode=<mode>] [--width=<width>]
                    [--indent=<string>] [--nl=<string>] [--padding=<n>]

DESCRIPTION

       This command formats its input into multiple columns.

OPTIONS

       --command=<name>
           Look up layout mode using configuration variable column.<name> and column.ui.

       --mode=<mode>
           Specify layout mode. See configuration variable column.ui for option syntax.

       --raw-mode=<n>
           Same as --mode but take mode encoded as a number. This is mainly used by other commands that have already parsed layout mode.

       --width=<width>
           Specify the terminal width. By default git column will detect the terminal width, or fall back to 80 if it is unable to do so.

       --indent=<string>
           String to be printed at the beginning of each line.

       --nl=<N>
           String to be printed at the end of each line, including newline character.

       --padding=<N>
           The number of spaces between columns. One space by default.
