Question

Let’s say I have the following commits in my master:

master  : ---A----B----C----D---E

Now I need to create new branch from commit A and include only changes in commit C

master  : ---A----B----C----D---E
              \        
branch2 :      \-------C

So I need to put in my branch2 commit C without B

How can I do that ?

Answer 1

Use cherry-pick

git checkout -b branch2 <shaSUM of A>
git cherry-pick <shaSUM of C>
