Managing Git Workflow

Overview

Automates git workflows for commit, push, and PR creation with context-aware message generation and automatic ticket number extraction.

When to Use

  • Creating commits with auto-generated messages in project's language
  • Pushing changes (with automatic commit if needed)
  • Creating PRs (with automatic push and commit if needed)
  • When user mentions: git, commit, push, pull request, PR, GitHub

Workflow Selection

Create PRmanaging-git-workflow/​reference/​pr.mdPush + Commit (if needed)

Common Principles

Commit Messages:

  • Use language specified in project context, prompts, or documentation (default to English if unspecified)
  • Follow existing project patterns (analyze with git log --online -10)
  • Include ticket numbers (FMT-XXXXX, FLEASVR-XXX, etc.) if found in branch name or changes

Branch Naming:

  • Extract ticket numbers from branch names for PR titles
  • Use descriptive, concrete names

Helper Scripts:

  • Common git operations available in git-helpers.sh
  • Use source to load helpers when needed

Quick Reference

# Load helper functions
source $SKILL_DIR/​git-helpers.sh

# Check status
has_uncommitted_changes  # returns 0 if true
has_unpushed_commits     # returns 0 if true
get_current_branch       # echoes branch name
check_pr_exists          # returns 0 if PR exists
