Source control woes

Sourcecontrol connected to github.
We have several apps in various stages in our dev instance - we now want to promote just one of those apps to our live server instance.
The dev instance is connected to gituhb using branch "dev" and we will then create a branch "live" to be connected to the live server.
So how do we go about only copying the single app that we want from dev to live using the source control,
if we create a new branch "live" in github that will source the "dev" branch and it will copy all the apps to it and we dont want that.

The problem seems to be the way retool points to and uses a single "branch" and everything then hangs off that inside the apps folder. Doesnt seem to be an easy way to do this, in the past we tried creating the live branch from dev, then painfully went through and unprotected/removed the apps we didnt want on the live server.
This will happen each and every time we want to copy the next ready app over from dev to live!
this seems messy

Hi Pete, you can Cherrypick the changes you wish to reflect on your live Retool deployment from the dev branch to the live (main) branch of the repo, thus only propagating the single app(s) of choice.
