I do not see this button either, but when I select a commit and click on
the options button (upper right part of the commit window) I can select
cherry-pick. I don't know if you will see it in the Wireshark repository
with your current permission level but you should be able to perform the
cherry-pick in your own fork and then push a MR.

Best regards,
Pascal.
