        Git’s smart enough to realize it’s the same commit and skip it.

        Common workflow use of cherry-pick:

        1. Say you have a master branch and a release branch
        2. You have a bug in production (off your release branch)
        3. You have other changes in master that are not ready for release
        4. You make a commit to fix the bug and merge to master, run CI and verify it’s fixed
        5. Cherry pick the change to the release branch and release as normal
        6. Merge with master before next release to make sure you can cut a new release

        All this works without issue.
