Rebasing and cherry-picking
Rebases mostly use git am, which given diffs apply them sequentially. Diffs are computed between a given commit and its parent.
On the other hand, cherry-picks uses a three-way merge to notice file renames.
More on the topic below:
- What algorithm is used during Git rebase?
- Issue with cherry pick: changes from previous commits are also applied
- In a Git cherry-pick or rebase merge conflict, how are BASE (aka “the ancestor”), LOCAL, and REMOTE determined?
