# Drag and Drop

> Current and planned Git actions by dragging commits, branches, files, and stashes.

Commit+ is being built toward a direct manipulation model for Git: drag the thing you want to act on, drop it where the action should happen, confirm, and let the app keep the repository state visible.

## Drag to cherry-pick

Drag selected commit(s) onto the current branch to cherry-pick them. This is the fastest direct-manipulation flow currently available in the page.

## Drag a commit to create a branch

/>

Drag one commit from the history graph onto the Branches header to create a new branch starting at that commit. This keeps the history action visual and avoids dropping into a separate modal first.

/>

Drag an existing branch onto the Branches header to create a new branch based on it. The source branch acts as the base, so the new branch points at the same tip and inherits the history.

## Drag to merge

Drag a branch onto the current branch to merge it. The drop target is the current branch itself, so you can see exactly which branch is being merged into before confirming.

## Drag to push to origin

Drag a branch onto the origin remote to publish it. This turns pushing into a direct-manipulation action: the branch is the thing you move, the remote is the drop target.

## Also available now

* Hold `⌥` while dragging a branch onto the current branch to rebase instead of merge.

## Roadmap direction

* Reorder, squash, and fixup commits with direct history manipulation.
* Revert commits with a drag modifier.
* Pull branches through remote drop targets.
* Stage, unstage, stash, and apply files through file and stash drop targets.

These broader workflows remain product direction until their drop targets are exposed and tested in the app.
