Frequently Asked Questions about finishing-a-development-branch

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I complete a git feature branch and merge it into the main branch?▼

To complete a git feature branch, you must ensure all tests pass before being guided through clear merge options, pull request creation, or branch cleanup in your version-controlled repository.

What's the best way to manage branch cleanup after merging a feature branch?▼

Managing branch cleanup after a local merge is automated by the workflow, which also presents options to discard work or keep the branch as-is based on your detected environment state.

Does this workflow require a specific test suite framework to verify code before merging?▼

No specific test suite framework is required, but the repository must have test suite execution capabilities so the workflow can verify that all tests pass before presenting merge options.

Can I create a pull request instead of a local merge when finishing my development workflow?▼

Yes, you can create a pull request instead of a local merge, as the workflow detects your workspace state and presents clear options for pull request creation, local merges, or discarding work.

What happens if my repository tests fail during the development workflow completion process?▼

If repository tests fail during development workflow completion, the process prevents you from proceeding to merge options or pull request creation until the test suite passes successfully.

When should I discard work instead of keeping a branch as-is in my development workflow?▼

You should discard work instead of keeping a branch as-is when the changes are no longer needed, allowing the workflow to automate the cleanup and removal of the unwanted local branch.
