cherrypick option to indicate original commit

By costin.l... on March 08, 2012 16:27 (imported from Google Code)


This is not a bug but a feature request.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Open Log window on a repo with two or more branches
  2. Select a commit from one branch
  3. Select cherrypick commit...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
the cherrypick window opens up but there's no way to get the equivalent of -x option from the command line:

From the git docs

"-x
When recording the commit, append a line that says "(cherry picked from commit …)" to the original commit message in order to indicate which commit this change was cherry-picked from. This is done only for cherry picks without conflicts. Do not use this option if you are cherry-picking from your private branch because the information is useless to the recipient. If on the other hand you are cherry-picking between two publicly visible branches (e.g. backporting a fix to a maintenance branch for an older release from a development branch), adding this information can be useful. "

This is exactly what I'm looking for.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Latest 1.7.7.0 / Win XP SP3 or Win 7 Ultimate
