将特定git提交从master移动到branch

Question

I have a specific commit that was pushed into origin/master but was not ready for prime time. It should have gone into a separate existing feature branch that will eventually be merged into master. How can I pluck the commit out of master and move it into the feature branch?

Here's what I have in the remote branches:

          a     B     c     d
master -  o --- o --- o --- o -->
                   \
newbranch -         - o --- o -->
                      p     q

The errant commit B needs to be moved to newbranch :

          a     c     d
master -  o --- o --- o -->
             \
newbranch -   - o --- o --- o -->
                B     p     q

Is this possible to achieve?

Answer 1

If you have already pushed the commit, then any attempt to rewrite the existing graph will require a force-push, which will make other members of your team sad.

Therefore, the best solution is to simply commit a revert to master :

git checkout master
git revert B   # Or whatever the commit hash for B is
