Like all merges, start by switching to the branch to be merged to - "master" in this case. Then merge from the whole "develop" branch if 85994 is the only difference. Otherwise, you need to merge just the 85994 changeset. (I'm a TortoiseGit user, so am the wrong person to ask about how to do that from the command line. But "git help merge" from the command line may well tell you enough to figure it out.)
'git cherry-pick' is the command for merging an individual changeset. These aren't tracked, although git can sometimes work out which commits have been cherry picked (using 'git cherry'). 'git merge' is for merging a branch which is tracked. After conversion, we're probably going to have to spend a little while working out what has been merged for some modules because of the poor merge history (in subversion, not a fault in the conversion). Once that's done merging should hopefully be easier to handle. And FWIW I agree with Beman's plan.
