Talk:Making GitHub Topic Branches
From GlueXWiki
My understanding is that you can cherry pick from one branch to another even if the target branch is not freshly made. I assume that cherry picking is done to move bug fixes to the topic branch. If so you might want to cherry pick some time after the target branch is created.

You are correct - I misread the documentation. It should be that there must be no uncommitted changes. I've modified the page to reflect this.
