cherry-pick --since ?

Is there functionality to allow something akin to
a
   git cherry-pick --since <commit>

or maybe syntax similar to git cherry where the upstream, head,
and limit can be specified. Or the .. syntax would work.


Here's my use case:

Two branches, 'A' and 'B'.
'A' is the master branch.
'B' was forked some time ago and is in bug fix only mode.
Much of 'A' and 'B' are still the same, but there have been
  some intrusive changes made to 'A' that should not go into 'B'.
  This is also why I can't just pull from 'B'. rebase may work,
  but then of course all of the commit id's change.

When changes are made in 'B' I currently cherry-pick each commit
into 'A' (where possible). This can be tedious when there are many
commits. I can use git cherry to show me which commits should be
cherry-picked, it would be nice if I could cherry-pick a range of
commits.

I am not subscribed to the list so please cc me. I hope this is ok,
if not let me know and I will subscribe. I am only a casual read of
the list.
