STG-PICK(1)                    StGit Manual                   STG-PICK(1)

NAME top

       stg-pick - Import a patch from another branch or a commit object

SYNOPSIS top

       stg pick [OPTIONS] <source>...
       stg pick [OPTIONS] [--name NAME] [--parent COMMITTISH] <source>
       stg pick [OPTIONS] --fold [--file PATH]... <source>...
       stg pick [OPTIONS] --update <source>...

DESCRIPTION top

       Import one or more patches from another branch or commit object
       into the current series.

       By default, the imported patch’s name is reused, but may be
       overridden with the --name option. A commit object can be reverted
       with the --revert option.

       When using the --expose option, the format of the commit message
       is determined by the stgit.pick.expose-format configuration
       option. This option is a format string as may be supplied to the
       --pretty option of git-show(1). The default is
       "format:%B%n(imported from commit %H)", which appends the commit
       hash of the picked commit to the patch’s commit message.

OPTIONS top
