How cherry-pick from one branch to another branch without checkout on this branch

Question

I have 3 branches. dev, master, master_copy. Now I am on the master branch and a need cherry-pick commit from dev branch to master_copy WITHOUT checkout to master_copy or dev branch. How I can do this?

I need like this cherry-pick <hash> dev master_copy

`cherry-pick` does not have an option to do that. – 1615903 Feb 01 '23 at 07:55 — 1615903, Feb 01 '23 at 07:55

If you do not want to checkout something else consider using a worktree for that:

git worktree add blah master_copy
cd blah
git cherry-pick some-commit
cd ..
git worktree remove blah

It's an overkill but at least will allow you to cherry-pick without moving on the default working tree.
