22 git-cherry \- Find commits not merged upstream
26 \fIgit\-cherry\fR [\-v] <upstream> [<head>]
31 The changeset (or "diff") of each commit between the fork\-point and <head> is compared against each commit between the fork\-point and <upstream>\&.
34 Every commit with a changeset that doesn't exist in the other branch has its id (sha1) reported, prefixed by a symbol\&. Those existing only in the <upstream> branch are prefixed with a minus (\-) sign, and those that only exist in the <head> branch are prefixed with a plus (+) symbol\&.
37 Because git\-cherry compares the changeset rather than the commit id (sha1), you can use git\-cherry to find out if a commit you made locally has been applied <upstream> under a different commit id\&. For example, this will happen if you're feeding patches <upstream> via email rather than pushing or pulling commits directly\&.
47 Upstream branch to compare against\&.
51 Working branch; defaults to HEAD\&.
