Cherry picking creates a new commit.
- gus_massa 7y agoThe cherry picked comment usually has the same author and date that the original commit. (Note that rebasing also creates a new commit.) One of the latest commits backported to Linux 4.9.something https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-4.9.y&id=8d8276867b5ac539f1d6e166a028b51c8b1ceda8 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux... Cherrypicked from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=master&id=060423bfdee3f8bc6e2c1bac97de24d5415e2bc4 https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux... Note that the changes are identical, just add ` &&ret` twice, but the line numbers have changed. Also, the cherrypicked version has an additional `Signed-off-by: `.
