Merge a Specific Commit in Git

• Fetch Changes from Remote Repository

  We use the git fetch command to download any changes made to the remote repository to our local machine.

  git fetch
  

  Note that the above command imports only the changes and stores them in your local repo. It does not merge the commits.

• Confirm the Commit Hash

You will need the commit hash of the commit you want to merge. Follow these steps.

Switch to the branch containing the commit you desire.

```bash
git checkout <branch-name>
```

Run the `git log` command to see a list of the commits in that branch. Use the `--oneline` argument for a compact view.

```bash
git log --oneline
```

• Merge the Commit

  Note down the hash of the commit you want to merge and switch to the destination branch. Use the git checkout command.

```bash
git checkout <branch-name>
```

Use the `git cherry-pick` command to merge the commit you desire with your current branch.

```bash
git cherry-pick <sha1-commit-hash>
```

• Push the Branch

  We can now run the git push command to push the changes to the remote repository.

  git push origin <branch-name>
  

  It is worth noting that we use the git merge command to combine two Git branches. We can also use the command to merge multiple commits to one history.
