title: cherry-picking with git-svn
body: <p>I'm facing the problem of merging a subset of revisions from one topic-branch to another. Since I am using git-svn, I was curious to see if it is possible to use cherry-picking for this. Using Subversion, I would do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>svn merge -c A
  svn merge -c B
  svn merge -c C
  ...
  svn commit ...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>what will happen if I try to do this?</p>
  
  <pre><code>git checkout branch1
  git cherry-pick A
  git cherry-pick B
  git cherry-pick C
  git svn dcommit
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I read the git svn man-page, the answers is "don't do that", but I get the impression when googling around that git svn does a much better job now with these kinds of issues.</p>
