In MC2 you can only commit code that's active in the image. When 
merging, you can selectively apply changes *to* the image, and then 
commit that.

MC1 has a feature that's like cherry-picking, though slightly less 
direct. Backporting allows you to choose a subset of changes to apply to 
an ancestor of the current version. Then you can commit a new version 
based on those changes, and merge it with the head. The end result is 
similar to cherry-picking the changes.
