Sometimes it is useful to cherry pick multiple commits in a single operation.

There most frequent way I do this is by cherry-picking a range using the syntax

git cherry-pick abc123^..def456

This applies that range of commits in order. The ^ is important because git ranges are exclusive on the left and inclusive on the right.

• abc123..def456 applies commits after abc123, up to and including def456
• abc123^..def456 applies commits starting with abc123, up to and including def456

The caret tells git to include the first commit.

I usually check that

git log --oneline abc123^..def456

shows the list of commits I expect before running the cherry-pick.

I use this one less often, but it is also possible to cherry-pick multiple individual commits in one command. For example:

git cherry-pick 7f3a9c2 b81e4d6 d4e8b73

Git applies the commits in the order listed, left to right. This is useful when you want to pick a non-continuous range or you want to re-order while picking.
