+# Cherry Pick Multiple Commits At Once
+
+I've always thought of `git cherry-pick` as being a command that you can run
+against a single commit by specifying the SHA of that commit. That's how I've
+always used it.
+
+The man page for `git-cherry-pick` plainly states:
+
+> Given one or more existing commits, apply the change each one introduces,
+> recording a new commit for each.
+
+We can cherry pick multiple commits at once in a single command. They will be
+applied one at a time in the order listed.
+
+Here we can see an example of applying two commits to the current branch and
+the accompanying output as they are auto-merged.
+
+```bash
+$ git cherry-pick 5206af5 6362f41
+Auto-merging test/services/event_test.rb
+[jb/my-feature-branch 961f3deb] Use the other testing syntax
+ Date: Fri May 2 10:50:14 2025 -0500
+ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)
+Auto-merging test/services/event_test.rb
+[jb/my-feature-branch b15835d0] Make other changes to the test
+ Date: Fri May 2 10:54:48 2025 -0500
+ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)
+```
+
+If the commits cannot be cleanly merged, then you may need to do some manual
+resolution as they are applied. Or maybe you want to try including the
+`-Xpatience` merge strategy.
+
+See `man git-cherry-pick` for more details. Make sure to look at the _Examples_
+section which contains much more advanced examples beyond what is shown above.
