Git Workflows

This skill provides git workflow patterns, commit message templates, branch management helpers, and git hook scripts.

What This Skill Provides

1. Commit Message Templates

• Conventional commits format
• Semantic commit structure
• Custom commit templates

2. Branch Management Scripts

• create-branch.sh - Create feature/hotfix/release branches
• check-branch.sh - Validate branch naming conventions
• sync-branch.sh - Sync branches with remote

3. Git Hook Templates

• pre-commit: Lint, format, secret scanning
• commit-msg: Message format validation
• pre-push: Test execution

4. Workflow Patterns

• Feature branch workflow
• Git Flow
• Trunk-based development
• GitHub Flow

Instructions

For Commit Messages

When user asks for commit message help:

1. Analyze staged changes with: git diff --staged

2. Use conventional commit format:

   • feat: New feature
   • fix: Bug fix
   • docs: Documentation
   • style: Formatting
   • refactor: Code restructuring
   • test: Testing
   • chore: Maintenance

3. Format: type(scope): subject (max 50 chars)

For Branch Management

Execute branch helper scripts:

!{bash plugins/01-core/skills/git-workflows/scripts/create-branch.sh feature my-feature} !{bash plugins/01-core/skills/git-workflows/scripts/check-branch.sh}

For Git Hooks

Provide hook templates from templates/ directory:

• Copy to .git/hooks/
• Make executable
• Customize for project needs

Conventional Commit Examples

Feature: feat(auth): add JWT authentication system

Bug Fix: fix(api): resolve memory leak in data processor

Documentation: docs(readme): update installation instructions

Refactoring: refactor(db): optimize query performance

Success Criteria

• ✅ Commit messages follow conventions
• ✅ Branch names are valid and descriptive
• ✅ Git hooks prevent bad commits
• ✅ Workflow matches team standards
