Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| SourceBranch | string | Yes | The branch whose last commit will be cherry-picked. |
| TargetBranch | string | Yes | The branch to cherry-pick the commit onto. |
| PullRequestBranch | switch | No | Creates a new branch from TargetBranch, cherry-picks there, and pushes to origin instead of committing directly. |
| CreatePullRequest | switch | No | Opens a pull request from the new branch to TargetBranch using gh. Requires -PullRequestBranch. |
Usage Examples
Direct cherry-pick onto target branch
.\Invoke-GitCherryPick.ps1 -SourceBranch "feature/my-feature" -TargetBranch "main"
Checks out main, pulls the latest changes, and cherry-picks the last commit from feature/my-feature directly onto it.
Cherry-pick via a PR branch (no PR created)
.\Invoke-GitCherryPick.ps1 -SourceBranch "feature/my-feature" -TargetBranch "main" -PullRequestBranch
Creates a new branch named cherry-pick/feature/my-feature-to-main, cherry-picks the commit there, and pushes the branch to origin. No pull request is opened.
Cherry-pick and open a pull request
.\Invoke-GitCherryPick.ps1 -SourceBranch "feature/my-feature" -TargetBranch "main" -PullRequestBranch -CreatePullRequest
Full workflow: creates the PR branch, cherry-picks the commit, pushes to origin, and calls gh pr create to open a pull request from the new branch to main.
Behavior Notes
- The PR branch is automatically named using the pattern
cherry-pick/<SourceBranch>-to-<TargetBranch>, with any characters that are invalid in git branch names replaced by-. - If a cherry-pick conflict occurs, the script throws an error. Resolve the conflicts manually and run
git cherry-pick --continueto finish. - The script uses
git rev-parseon the source branch, soSourceBranchcan be any valid git ref (branch name, tag, or commit SHA).

Use when work should span one or more detached tasks but still behave like one job with a single owner context. TaskFlow is the durable flow substrate under authoring layers like Lobster, ACPX, plugins, or plain code. Keep conditional logic in the caller; use TaskFlow for flow identity, child-task linkage, waiting state, revision-checked mutations, and user-facing emergence.
