Hello,

I'm using "git cherry old master base" to see if all commits between
master and base have been applied in my 'old' branch.

So I expect that git cherry is using a list of commits given by : "git
rev-list --no-merges base..master".

But it looks like it's not the case:

  $ git rev-list --no-merges --oneline base..master | wc -l
  22

  $ git cherry old master base | wc -l
  12

Could anybody help me on this because I don't understand the results I have ?

Thanks
