Git Spice Stack Management FAQs

Question 1

What is the Git Spice Stack Management skill?

Accepted Answer

This is a specialized Claude Code capability that enables Claude to manage complex branch hierarchies using the git-spice (gs) CLI. It automates the tracking, rebasing, and submission of 'stacked' branches—multiple pull requests that depend on one another.

Question 2

When should I use this skill with Claude?

Accepted Answer

Use this skill when you are working on large features that need to be broken down into smaller, dependent commits. It is ideal for managing 'upstack' and 'downstack' branches, resolving dependencies after a parent branch is merged, or submitting multiple related PRs at once.

Question 3

What core capabilities does Git Spice provide?

Accepted Answer

The skill provides automated stack tracking, visualization of branch hierarchies, one-command submission of multiple PRs, intelligent repository synchronization, and safe branch deletion that automatically moves child branches to a new base.

Question 4

How does it improve my Git workflow?

Accepted Answer

It eliminates the manual effort and errors associated with rebasing long chains of branches. Instead of manually running 'git rebase' for every child branch, this skill allows Claude to 'restack' the entire hierarchy with a single command, maintaining all relationships automatically.

Question 5

What is the difference between upstack and downstack?

Accepted Answer

Upstack refers to branches built on top of your current branch (descendants), while downstack refers to branches below your current branch leading back to the main trunk (ancestors). This skill allows you to perform operations like 'submit' or 'restack' on either specific part of the chain.
