I have a feeling I am asking something that can't be done in git, but I might as well ask. Is there any way that I can make one change and commit it to all branches? For instance, suppose I want to make a change to my AUTHORS file or LICENSE file. I know I can commit the change to one branch and then cherry-pick it to each branch individually. But is there an easier way to do it?

To push the all branches to a remote git, we can use the git push command followed by the --all flag and origin. This will create a track with the local branches to the remote branches.
You can cherry-pick a commit on one branch to create a copy of the commit with the same changes on another branch. If you commit changes to the wrong branch or want to make the same changes to another branch, you can cherry-pick the commit to apply the changes to another branch.
b) GIT does not support 'commits' across multiple branches or tags. Subversion allows the creation of folders at any location in the repository layout.
No, git push only pushes commits from current local branch to remote branch that you specified in command.
If the branches are going to be merged back to the trunk, or rebased on top of the trunk, you won't have to worry about it. They'll pick it up when that happens.
If they're long-lived branches, you'll want to either merge the updated branch into them, or cherry-pick the commit.
