6 git-cherry - Find commits not merged upstream
10 'git-cherry' [-v] <upstream> [<head>]
14 The changeset (or "diff") of each commit between the fork-point and <head>
15 is compared against each commit between the fork-point and <upstream>.
17 Every commit with a changeset that doesn't exist in the other branch
18 has its id (sha1) reported, prefixed by a symbol. Those existing only
19 in the <upstream> branch are prefixed with a minus (-) sign, and those
20 that only exist in the <head> branch are prefixed with a plus (+) symbol.
22 Because git-cherry compares the changeset rather than the commit id
23 (sha1), you can use git-cherry to find out if a commit you made locally
24 has been applied <upstream> under a different commit id. For example,
25 this will happen if you're feeding patches <upstream> via email rather
26 than pushing or pulling commits directly.
35 Upstream branch to compare against.
38 Working branch; defaults to HEAD.
