In SmartGit, there are several places from which you can initiate a cherry-pick:
- Menu and toolbar On the main window, select Branch|Cherry-Pick to open the Cherry-Pick dialog, where you can select one or more commits to cherry-pick. Depending on your toolbar settings, you can also open this dialog via the Cherry-Pick button on the toolbar.
- Log Graph On the Log graph of the Log window, you can perform a cherry-pick by right-clicking on one or more commits and selecting Cherry-Pick from the context-menu.
