Merge part of a pull request

git, github, pull-request

Solution

No, the pull request is all or nothing.

You can recreate the pull request by making a branch up to only the commits you need and merge that.

You can do this via

git cherry-pick

Or

git rebase -i

Problem

New Git and Github user. Is it possible to accept/merge only part of a Pull Request? For example if there is a Pull Request on Github that has 4 commits but you only want to use 2 of them, is there a way to simply merge the 2 and disregard the other 2?
