Before a while I had the idea to setup my own Gitlab instance to manage my git repositories on my own server.

Sometimes it is necessary to merge partial changes from one branch into another. Therefor you can use cherry-picking and merge a chosen commit into the actual branch: $> git cherry-pick a686df3 [sprint-04 39f1473] FZMP-993- Download actual db 2 files changed, 88 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tools/mina/config/deploy_db.rb
