How to cherry-pick from a remote branch?

Question

I\'m having trouble performing a cherry-pick. On my local machine, I\'m currently on my \"master\" branch. I want to cherry-pick in a commit from another branch, named \"zeb

If you have fetched, yet this still happens, the following might be a reason.

It can happen that the commit you are trying to pick, is no longer belonging to any branch. This may happen when you rebase.

In such case, at the remote repo:

1. git checkout xxxxx
2. git checkout -b temp-branch

Then in your repo, fetch again. The new branch will be fetched, including that commit.
