| 215a7ad1 | 6 | git-cherry-pick - Apply the change introduced by an existing commit. |

| 8 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 9 | -------- | |
| 215a7ad1 | 10 | 'git-cherry-pick' [-n] [-r] <commit> |
| de2b82c6 JH |
11 | |
| 12 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 13 | ----------- | |
| 14 | Given one existing commit, apply the change the patch introduces, and record a | |
| 15 | new commit that records it. This requires your working tree to be clean (no | |
| 16 | modifications from the HEAD commit). | |
| 17 | ||
| 18 | OPTIONS | |
| 19 | ------- | |
| 20 | <commit>:: | |
| 21 | Commit to cherry-pick. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | -r:: | |
| f73ae1fc | 24 | Usually the command appends which commit was |
| de2b82c6 JH |
25 | cherry-picked after the original commit message when |
| 26 | making a commit. This option, '--replay', causes it to | |
| 27 | use the original commit message intact. This is useful | |
| 28 | when you are reordering the patches in your private tree | |
| 29 | before publishing, and is used by 'git rebase'. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | -n:: | |
| 32 | Usually the command automatically creates a commit with | |
| 33 | a commit log message stating which commit was | |
| 34 | cherry-picked. This flag applies the change necessary | |
| 35 | to cherry-pick the named commit to your working tree, | |
| 36 | but does not make the commit. In addition, when this | |
| 37 | option is used, your working tree does not have to match | |
| 38 | the HEAD commit. The cherry-pick is done against the | |
| 39 | beginning state of your working tree. | |

| 41 | This is useful when cherry-picking more than one commits' | |
| 42 | effect to your working tree in a row. | |
