Cherry pick onto another branch in Eclipse git

Question

In Eclipse using egit, is it possible to cherry pick a commit (in my case on the currently checked out branch, e.g. master) onto another branch B without first having to check out B?

This would be quite a time saver...

NB, this is explicitly about cherry picking (involving merging) and not just fetching other branches as asked before

Answer 1

To Cherry Pick a commit from another branch in Eclipse:

1. Switch to the branch where you want to get the commit
2. Select the project in 'Project Explorer' tab and look for the 'History' tab.
3. Make sure that in the History tab is enabled 'Show All Branches and Tags'
4. Search for the commit to cherry pick, select it, right click and 'Cherry-Pick'
5. If the case solve conflicts
6. Commit and push
