 git-cherry-pick(1) Manual Page
 </h1>
 <h2>NAME</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <p>git-cherry-pick -
  Apply the change introduced by an existing commit
 </p>
 </div>
 </div>
 <h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <p><em>git-cherry-pick</em> [--edit] [-n] [-x] &lt;commit&gt;</p>
 </div>
 <h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <p>Given one existing commit, apply the change the patch introduces, and record a
 new commit that records it. This requires your working tree to be clean (no
 modifications from the HEAD commit).</p>
 </div>
 <h2>OPTIONS</h2>
 <div class="sectionbody">
 <dl>
 <dt>
 &lt;commit&gt;
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Commit to cherry-pick.
  For a more complete list of ways to spell commits, see
  "SPECIFYING REVISIONS" section in <a href="git-rev-parse.html">git-rev-parse(1)</a>.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 -e|--edit
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  With this option, <tt>git-cherry-pick</tt> will let you edit the commit
  message prior committing.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 -x
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Cause the command to append which commit was
  cherry-picked after the original commit message when
  making a commit. Do not use this option if you are
  cherry-picking from your private branch because the
  information is useless to the recipient. If on the
  other hand you are cherry-picking between two publicly
  visible branches (e.g. backporting a fix to a
  maintenance branch for an older release from a
  development branch), adding this information can be
  useful.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 -r
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  It used to be that the command defaulted to do <tt>-x</tt>
  described above, and <tt>-r</tt> was to disable it. Now the
  default is not to do <tt>-x</tt> so this option is a no-op.
 </p>
 </dd>
 <dt>
 -n|--no-commit
 </dt>
 <dd>
 <p>
  Usually the command automatically creates a commit with
  a commit log message stating which commit was
  cherry-picked. This flag applies the change necessary
  to cherry-pick the named commit to your working tree,
  but does not make the commit. In addition, when this
  option is used, your working tree does not have to match
  the HEAD commit. The cherry-pick is done against the
  beginning state of your working tree.
 </p>
 <p>This is useful when cherry-picking more than one commits'
 effect to your working tree in a row.</p>
