Hi Daniel, You could try `git cherry-pick -x SHA` instead. Where "SHA" is the commit hash in devel branch. This way you will cherry-pick only your particular commit.
- git reset --hard - git switch devel - git log --oneline -1 # to get the SHA - git switch RELEASE_3_17 - git pull --rebase - git cherry-pick -x $SHA - git push Regards, Martin On Mon, Aug 14, 2023 at 3:56 PM Daniel Davis <danieldavis...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello everyone, > > I would like to update the description of the released version of my > package. > Following the developer guide, I executed the git checkout and pull > commands on the devel branch, changed the description file as necessary, > then committed and pushed it - everything was fine. > However, when I try to checkout RELEASE_3_17 then execute git cherry-pick > devel, a conflict error is thrown on the description file.
