I created a local alias for cherry-picking an a safe way for subversion: [from alias section in my .gitconfig] cherry-pick-svn = !GIT_EDITOR='sed -i /^git-svn-id:/d' git cherry-pick -e which do a normal cherry-pick automatically editing the commit to remove that line. may be this could be added to the svn alias list?
