From 334ae397452170dacfcd8e69e4a41f6a64f54eec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin von Zweigbergk Date: Fri, 21 Dec 2012 11:10:11 -0800 Subject: learn to pick/revert into unborn branch cherry-picking into an unborn branch should work, so make it work, with or without --ff. Cherry-picking anything other than a commit that only adds files, will naturally result in conflicts. Similarly, revert also works, but will result in conflicts unless the specified revision only deletes files.
