Can I recover deleted branches with this skill?

Yes, the skill provides specific workflows for using the Git reflog to locate and restore deleted commits or branches within the 90-day retention period.

Is it safe to use interactive rebase on shared branches?

The skill teaches industry best practices, including the rule of only rebasing local commits to avoid causing history conflicts for your collaborators.

How does this skill help with merge conflicts?

It provides advanced strategies for interactive rebasing and conflict resolution, allowing you to resolve issues commit-by-commit for a cleaner history compared to traditional merges.

What is the advantage of using Git worktrees?

Worktrees allow you to have multiple branches checked out in different directories simultaneously, enabling you to switch contexts for urgent fixes without stashing or committing unfinished work.

Can Claude help automate bug hunting using this skill?

Absolutely. This skill includes patterns for 'git bisect run' which allows Claude to use test scripts to automatically find the exact commit that broke your code.
