[git] How can I selectively merge or pick changes from another branch in Git?

The easiest way is to set your repository to the branch you want to merge with, and then run

git checkout [branch with file] [path to file you would like to merge]

If you run

git status

you will see the file already staged...

Then run

git commit -m "Merge changes on '[branch]' to [file]"

Simple.
