Andreas' response is good is you're into pure git. Let me add some
cogito tricks ;-)

 $ cd project-luis
 # only if have to do cg-branch-add the first time!
 $ cg-branch-add paul http://server/git/project.git
 $ cg-fetch paul
 # show what paul has that we don't
 $ cg-log -r master:paul
 $ cg-diff -r master:paul
 # show what we have that paul doesn't
 $ cg-log -r paul:master
 $ cg-diff -r master:paul

You can also do

 $ cg-diff -r master:paul

 # if you've done cg-fetch paul and reviewed it what you're about to

 cg-merge paul

 # otherwise, for a shortcut of cg-fetch <branch> && cg-merge <branch> do
 $ cg-update paul

  # export the patches paul has that we don't
  $ mkdir .patchesfrompaul
  $ git-format-patch --mbox --signoff -o .patchesfrompaul master paul
  # review the contents of .patchesfrompaul and decide what patches you want
  $ git-am -3 .patchesfrompaul/0006-fix-frob-invocation.txt

Note that git does not track patch application _explicitly_ like Arch
does, it tracks them only indirectly. Merges (tla star-merge type of
merges) are recorded explicitly. This work surprisingly well. If you
do a cg-update, cg-merge or git-merge, git will keep a good record of
what points of the history have been merged.

When you cherry pick patches, if the patch applies cleanly, the next
time you do a merge from that branch it will be skipped automagically.
If the patch needs serious editing, there's a good chance that git
will try to apply it again.

cheers.
