You need to fetch it first, and then merge the commit you want. The
tools operating the fetching protocol only use refs, so if you want
to fetch (or pull) a specific version that has neither a tag nor a
branch head pointing to it, you'll have to write a new tool for that.

The end-result of the following command will be, barring side-effects
in the remote-tracking branches, identical to what you're trying to
do though:
git fetch remote && git merge $commit_id
