I have 2 branches that are children of the dev branch, let's say dev/branchA and dev/branchB. I want to pick a single file from the last commit of dev/branchA and overwrite it in dev/branchB. The path and the filename are the same. How can i do it only using git?

You can simply checkout the file from branchA:

git checkout branchB
git checkout branchA path/to/file

Or, since Git 2.23:

git restore --source branchB path/to/file
