What is the main-branch development pattern?

It involves working on your local main branch and pushing specific commit ranges to remote feature branches, eliminating the need to constantly switch and manage multiple local branches.

Why use git switch instead of git checkout?

Git switch is a modern command (introduced in Git 2.23) designed to separate branch switching from file restoration, providing a more intuitive and safer interface than the multi-purpose checkout command.

How does this skill interact with GitHub?

It utilizes GitHub MCP tools to create, list, and update pull requests directly within the Claude Code environment, bypassing the need for manual browser actions or the GitHub CLI.

Does this skill support stacked pull requests?

Yes, it provides specific guidance on using advanced rebase flags like --update-refs to synchronize entire chains of dependent branches in a single operation.

Can I use this for complex rebase scenarios?

Absolutely. It provides expert guidance on interactive rebasing, squash merging, and using the --onto flag for precise control over where commits are placed in your history.

Optimizes Git branching and GitHub pull request workflows using modern Git commands and linear history practices.

概要

This skill equips Claude with advanced Git and GitHub expertise, focusing on a high-velocity workflow where development happens primarily on the main branch before pushing to remote feature branches. It emphasizes modern Git commands like 'switch' and 'restore', structured naming conventions, and sophisticated rebasing techniques for clean, linear histories. Whether you're managing complex PR chains with stacked branches or cleaning up commit histories using interactive rebasing, this skill provides the patterns and GitHub MCP integration necessary for professional-grade source control management.
