git drover has been deprecated in favor of cherry-picking using Gerrit.
Try it, it's faster!
See https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/drover for instructions.
If the Gerrit UI is not sufficient, and you know what you're doing:
git checkout -b branch-name refs/remotes/branch-heads/{branch}
git cherry-pick -x {cherry_pick}
If you have to do a lot of merges, consider using multiple working directories
in your checkout:
