Cherry-picking is amazing with magit. I use spacemacs so my magit has evil style keybindings.

I just open up a log view to the branch i'm cherry-picking from, move the cursor to the commit I want to pick, then if I don't remember what the key is I just press ? and it shows me all the commands, then I press A for cherry-picking, and it immediately populates it with the commit that my cursor is on in the log view. Easy-peasy.

I think it's having to go into a log view that bugs me. I just want to press one button for cherry pick, point it to a ref and be done. It might be possible but I haven't figured out how yet.
