新的Git分支与另外2个差异

Question

I want to create a branch in GIT with the file differences from 2 other git branches. I do not want whole repo copy but only the changed files keeping rest of the folder structure as is. How can I achieve this?

For example:

Branch 1: testbranch1

deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder1/file1.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder1/file2.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder2/file1.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder2/file2.txt

Branch 2: testbranch2

deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder1/file1.txt -> File Changed
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder1/file2.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder2/file1.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder2/file2.txt -> File Changed

New branch should have:

deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder1/file1.txt
deployment/src/main/apiproxy/myorg/folder2/file2.txt

Instead of creating a new branch, You can just create a patch for the changes.

git format-patch testbranch2 --stdout > mypatch.patch

Later if you need to apply your patch, do the following.

git apply mypatch.patch
