I want to add only one file that already contains in master branch to other branch?(GIT)-CodePudding

I have branch master in GIT and there are a few files.

I want to add only one file from that branch to another, how to do that?

Can not find any info among the internet.

CodePudding user response：

Try with:

git checkout <file-destination-branch>
git checkout master -- <file-to-get-from-master-branch>
git add <file-to-get-from-master>
git commit -m "Got file from master branch"

CodePudding user response：

You can use the git checkout command.

Step 1: go to the branch containing the file ($ git checkout <branch containing the file>)

Step 2: run $ git checkout <branch to move the file to> <file>

For more info, run $ git -h checkout
