How to create git patch and apply between two commits
Raw
patch_and_apply.md

Creating the GIT Patch

The following command creates a single .patch file that contains multiple commits.

git format-patch cc1dde0dd^..6de6d4b06 --stdout > foo.patch

You can then apply it like so:

git am foo.patch

Note: Be sure to use ^.. instead of .. if you want the first commit SHA to be included.
