Conceptually, this is really not cherry-picking _commits_. For example, the commit message will typically be all wrong if you pick only one change. Also, if I were the author of the original patch, I would not be happy for you to label me author of the cut-down (and possibly invalid) commit. Therefore I suggest (just like on IRC the other day): git show <commit> -- <file(s)> | git apply possibly followed by git add -i or git add -p <file> Hth, Dscho -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
