Assuming you have the entire brake system, you will be replacing the Brake lever and putting on a reservoir and lines for the brakes. You can cut the cable in front of the ball where it attaches to the foot lever to keep using the rear brakes as they are. I think I have seen after market cables available for this modification also....

Wire tie,..... until you can get a hydraulic rear set-up too.....

Criss cross a couple of wire ties around the cable/ball, to keep it in the slot/hole for the cable..... they're cheap and plastic, so keep spares under the seat in a baggie.....
