I have GIT version management tool for versioning and using gitolite for user and project management within git. Will tell about this gitolite story in a seperate post.
Here we are going to learn how to copy commits from your master to branch.
Basically I am a linux enthusiast so I will explain everthing here in commends. Feel free to use git commends 😄
- First you have to check where you are now.
git branch -a
That * will where you are. Now I am in Master branch.
GIT Branch
- Create a new branch and move to that created branch
git branch <branch_name>
git checkout <branch_name>
If you are already created branch. No need create branch just git checkout
- Once again confirm Are you in correct branch.
git branch -a
- Pick up the commits to this branch
git cherry-pick <first_some_character_of_commit_hash>
Ex: git cherry-pick d1c4b9a5a21e3d09cae
- How to get the hash tag of commits
git log
GIT Log
You can get the has tag from here.
- Then Switch back to master
git checkout master
- For push this branch to remote server
git push origin <branch_name>
- For delete the locally created branch
git branch -D <branch_name>
