Can this skill help me recover deleted commits?

Yes, it utilizes git reflog patterns to identify and restore commits that may have been lost during complex resets, rebases, or accidental branch deletions.

What branching strategy does this skill use?

It primarily follows GitHub Flow, focusing on short-lived feature branches that branch from and merge back into a deployable main branch for continuous delivery.

Is it safe to use for force pushing?

The skill enforces the use of --force-with-lease instead of a standard force push to ensure you don't accidentally overwrite a teammate's work on shared branches.

What are atomic commits and why use them?

Atomic commits represent a single logical change. This skill helps create them using interactive staging (git add -p), making code reviews easier and reverts safer.

Does it support monorepo structures?

Yes, it includes specific rules for monorepo context, including service-specific workspace detection and specialized directory handling.
