Visual studio settings to use Cherry pick option with "-x" argument

Current cherry pick option using visual studio is not adding any details of original commits to the newly cherry-picked commit.

In order to avoid that we have "git cherry-pick -x <commitsha>" option which will add origincal commit sha in commit message description.

Is there any way to add this option using Visual Studio UI ? or can we set command to current cherry-pick process to use "-x" option to add deatils about original commit using visual studio UI

    Hi @Pawar, Tushar (EXT), 

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Currently, it is not supported to use the cherry-pick with -x option in Visual Studio IDE. 

    It has been reported to product team. You can see the feedback . But it is still being evaluated. You can comment and vote on that feedback ticket to track the process. 

    Thanks for your understanding! 

    Sincerely,

    Anna
