Git is a distributed version control system that is used to keep track of changes to a set of computer files. This useful tool has quite many sub-commands, in this post we will look into one of those sub-commands the cherry-pick command. The cherry-pick command allows you to pick a specific commit from another git branch and bring it into your current branch. Understanding Git Cherry-Pick Definition Of Cherry-Pick In Git The cherry-pick sub-command in git is used to apply a single commit from one branch and apply it to the current branch in another. Purpose Of Cherry-picking A Commit There are many reasons you may want to cherry-pick some examples are bug fixes, feature isolation, and backporting to name a few. Considerations Be aware cherry-picking only moves one commit to the new branch at a time. Be prepared to resolve merge conflicts when working with cherry picked commits. Document your cherry picks clearly, including their origin. Consider alternatives like rebasing or merging instead. Make your current directory contain a git repository. If you need a list of the current branches available for that repository use git branch -r. 1. Identify The Commit You Want To Cherry-pick First, you will need the commit hash that you want to cherry-pick. To look at existing commits to gather a commit hash, the git log is likely the easiest below is an example: git log source-branch If you get an error due to the branch not being stored locally use git checkout source-branch and try again. Once you have git log information you will need to scroll through till you find the desired commit. Note the commit hash down. For reference, the commit hash is outlined in the example below. 2. Switch To The Target Branch Now to change to the other branch, the branch that will be the target for the cherry pick. To change to the target branch you want to use the git checkout command, see the example below: git checkout target-branch Make sure to replace target-branch with the branch name you want to apply the commit to. 3. Using The Cherry-pick Command Now has come the time for the cherry-pick command. git cherry-pick commit-hash --no-commit Replace commit-hash with the commit hash that we identified in step one. 4. Resolve Any Conflicts That Arise If any conflicts come up you will be prompted to resolve them before continuing. 5. Commit The Changes Once any conflicts are taken care of you will want to do a new commit using: git commit You will then be asked to enter your commit message 6. Push The Changes After you commit the changes make sure you remember to push them to the remote repository. Assuming the remote repository is already configured in this the command would be: git push Conclusion Git is unquestionably a powerful command-line tool. Git has many sub-commands that provide many functions. In this blog post, we discussed the cherry-pick sub-command its definition, purpose, as well as considerations. From there wrapped up to a step-by-step guide on how to use the command.
