I got a bad result with git push origin branch1 branch2 command   In my case  branch2 is deleted and branch1 has been updated with some new changes   Hence  if you want only the changes push on the branch2 from the branch1  try procedures below    On branch1  git add   On branch1  git commit -m  comments  On branch1  git push origin branch1 On branch2  git pull origin branch1 On branch1  revert to the previous commit

In my case I had one local commit  which wasn t pushed to origin master  but commited to my local master branch  This local commit should be now pushed to another branch   With Git Extensions you can do something like this     Create if not existing and  checkout new branch  where you want to push your commit  Select the commit from the history  which should get commited  amp  pushed to this branch  Right click and select Cherry pick commit  Press Cherry pick button afterwards  The selected commit get s applied to your checked out branch  Now commit and push it  Check out your old branch  with the faulty commit  Hard reset this branch to the second last commit  where everything was ok  be aware what are you doing here    You can do that via right click on the second last commit and select Reset current branch to here  Confirm the opperation  if you know what you are doing    You could also do that on the GIT command line  Example copied from David Christensen      I think you ll find git cherry-pick   git reset to be a much   quicker workflow       Using your same scenario  with  feature  being the branch with the   top-most commit being incorrect  it d be much easier to do this       git checkout master     git cherry-pick feature     git checkout feature     git reset --hard HEAD       Saves quite a bit of work  and is the scenario that git cherry-pick   was designed to handle       I ll also note that this will work as well if it s not the topmost   commit  you just need a commitish for the argument to cherry-pick    via       git checkout master   git cherry-pick  sha1   git checkout feature   git rebase -i       whack the specific commit from the history

It s very simple  Suppose that you have made changes to your Branch A which resides on both place locally and remotely but you want to push these changes to Branch B which doesn t exist anywhere   Step-01  create and switch to the new branch B     git checkout -b B   Step-02  Add changes in the new local branch     git add     or specific file s    Step-03  Commit the changes     git commit -m  commit message    Step-04  Push changes to the new branch B  The below command will create a new branch B as well remotely     git push origin B   Now  you can verify from bitbucket that the branch B will have one more commit than branch A  And when you will checkout the branch A these changes won t be there as these have been pushed into the branch B   Note  If you have commited your changes into the branch A and after that you want to shift those changes into the new branch B then you will have to reset those changes first   HappyLearning

Certainly  though it will only work if it s a fast forward of BRANCH2 or if you force it  The correct syntax to do such a thing is   git push  lt remote gt   lt source branch gt   lt dest branch gt     See the description of a  refspec  on the git push man page for more detail on how it works  Also note that both a force push and a reset are operations that  rewrite history   and shouldn t be attempted by the faint of heart unless you re absolutely sure you know what you re doing with respect to any remote repositories and other people who have forks clones of the same project

That will almost work   When pushing to a non-default branch  you need to specify the source ref and the target ref   git push origin branch1 branch2   Or  git push  lt remote gt   lt branch with new changes gt   lt branch you are pushing to gt

You have committed to BRANCH1 and want to get rid of this commit without losing the changes   git reset is what you need  Do   git branch BRANCH2   if you want BRANCH2 to be a new branch  You can also merge this at the end with another branch if you want  If BRANCH2 already exists  then leave this step out   Then do   git reset --hard HEAD 3   if you want to reset the commit on the branch you have committed  This takes the changes of the last three commits   Then do the following to bring the resetted commits to BRANCH2  git checkout BRANCH2   This source was helpful  https   git-scm com docs git-reset git-reset-Undoacommitmakingitatopicbranch
