The process of cherry-picking specific lines from another branch typically involve the following steps:
Identify the source branch: Identify which branch has the lines you want to cherry-pick. This can be done using various Git commands such as git branch
or git log
.
Create a new branch: Create a new branch from the target branch where you want the cherry-picked lines to be added. This can be done using the git branch
command.
Retrieve the commit hash: Identify the commit hash that contains the lines you want to cherry-pick. This can be done using Git commands such as git log
or git show
.
Cherry-pick the lines: Use the git cherry-pick
command with the commit hash to copy the specific lines from the source branch to the target branch.
Resolve conflicts: If there are any conflicts between the cherry-picked lines and existing code in the target branch, resolve them manually.
Commit the changes: Once all the conflicts have been resolved, commit the changes to the target branch using git commit
.
Clean up: Delete the source branch if it's no longer needed using the git branch -d
command.
