🍒 CherryPicker - Smart Git Cherry-Picking in VS Code

CherryPicker helps you cherry-pick commits from pull requests across branches — directly inside Visual Studio Code — with zero need to touch the command line.

Supports GitHub and Bitbucket repositories. Fully OAuth-enabled. Intuitive. Clean. Fast.

🚀 Features

• ✅ OAuth login for GitHub and Bitbucket
• ✅ Fetch pull request commits with a PR number
• ✅ Select specific commits to cherry-pick
• ✅ Search for and validate target branches
• ✅ Perform cherry-pick across branches
• ✅ Detailed success, skip, and conflict messaging
• ✅ All within VS Code's side panel

🧭 How It Works

Absolutely — here's the updated section in your exact formatting style, reflecting the new automatic detection behavior:

1. Authentication

When you open the Cherry Picker panel:

• The extension automatically detects the current Git repository in your workspace.
• Based on the detected repo host (e.g., GitHub or Bitbucket), it will display the appropriate provider button.
• Click the shown button to authenticate via OAuth.
• A browser tab will open to request permissions.
• Once approved, you'll be redirected back to VS Code.

✅ If successful: You'll see a message like Connected to GitHub.

❌ If authentication fails: An error is shown below the button.

2. Pull Request Fetch

After authentication, the next section prompts:

• Enter the pull request number in the field labeled: “Enter pull request number...”

• Click Fetch Commits

❌ Failure: Shows a red error message below the button.

3. Select Commits

If commits are found:

• A list appears titled: “Please Select Commits”

  • 📝 Commit message
  • 🆔 SHA
  • 🕒 Time
  • ⬜ Checkbox to select
