How to cherry-pick a commit?

0178

To cherry-pick a commit, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the Commit: First, find the commit hash of the commit you want to cherry-pick. You can do this by running:

    git log --oneline
  2. Switch to the Target Branch: Make sure you are on the branch where you want to apply the changes. For example, if you want to cherry-pick into the master branch, switch to it:

    git checkout master
  3. Cherry-Pick the Commit: Use the git cherry-pick command followed by the commit hash you identified earlier:

    git cherry-pick <commit_hash>
  4. Resolve Conflicts (if any): If there are conflicts during the cherry-pick, Git will pause the process and prompt you to resolve them. After resolving conflicts, you can continue the cherry-pick with:

    git cherry-pick --continue
  5. Check the Commit: After a successful cherry-pick, you can check your commit log to see the new commit:

    git log --oneline

This will apply the changes from the specified commit to your current branch as a new commit.
