Git Branch Skill
When to Apply
- •User asks to create/switch/delete branches.
- •Work needs branch hygiene before implementation.
Workflow
- •Determine base branch (
main,develop, or project default). - •Create branch with consistent naming:
- •
feature/<topic> - •
fix/<topic> - •
chore/<topic>
- •
- •Verify upstream tracking after push.
- •Clean up merged branches when requested.
Safety
- •Do not delete unmerged branches without explicit confirmation.
- •Avoid force operations unless necessary and approved.
