Project and code management together.

Copying commits to other branches

You can copy an existing commit from another branch to the current branch within the repository using the git cherry-pick command.

Cherry-picking allows you to:

  • Move a commit from the wrong branch to the right branch.
  • Add a commit to the current branch based on an existing commit from another branch.
