tag identical content point in different branches:
 git tag tag1 commitx
 git tag tag2 commity

get list of newer commits:
 git rev-list tag1^..head1
 git rev-list tag2^..head2

compare content of commits via:
git diff --exit-code commit1 commit2

...and cherry-pick resulting list from one side to the other


Git is an amazing toolbox :-)
