I am working on a Git branch that has some broken tests, and I would like to pull (merge changes, not just overwrite) these tests from another branch where they are already fixed.
I know I can do
git pull origin that_other_branch
but this will attempt to merge lots of other files, for that I am not yet ready.
Is it possible to pull and merge only the specified file (and not everything) from that another branch?
This is not a duplicate of Git pull request for just one file as all answers to that question are how to revert the locally changed file to the repository version, without changing any branches.
