There is new version of 8 of my files which I have cloned , Those new 8 files are presented in a patchset which is not yet merged with the master,So I want to replace my old 8 files in local with that patchset without merging the master, How can I do it? (Gerrit)

Reset to default 1Switch to the page of the patchset. You can find "DOWNLOAD" or "Download", depending on the Gerrit version, on the page. Press it and it shows a series of commands for checkout, cherry-pick, format-patch, and etc. Copy the git fetch command before && and run it in the local repository to make sure the commit of the patchset is present in the local repository.
To use the 8 files of this commit to overwrite their counterparts in the working tree,
# multiple files in one command
git checkout $commit -- path/to/file1 path/to/file2 ...
# or one file in one command
git checkout $commit -- path/to/file1
git checkout $commit -- path/to/file2
If you want to apply the patch of this commit instead,
git cherry-pick $commit
