Can I configure custom short names when creating feature branches in spec-kit?▼

Yes, configuring custom short names for feature branches in spec-kit is supported. The automation extracts keywords from feature descriptions automatically or applies custom short names based on your specific project configuration files.

What is the best way to maintain consistent naming conventions across git feature branches?▼

Maintaining consistent naming conventions across git feature branches is best achieved through automation that applies sequential or timestamp-based strategies. This enforces standardized branch names derived directly from project configuration files.

How does branch numbering work when automating feature branch initialization?▼

Branch numbering during feature branch initialization works by applying either sequential or timestamp-based strategies. The chosen strategy is determined by reading the settings defined within your project configuration files.

Do I need shell scripts to manage repository state for automated branching?▼
