What problem does it solve?

This Skill simplifies the process of creating Git feature branches, especially when you need sequential or timestamped naming for your branches.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Feature Branch Creation: Automatically generates a new Git feature branch with a name based on the project's naming conventions.
  • Sequential Naming: Generates a branch name using a sequential number.
  • Timestamp Naming: Generates a branch name with a timestamp for version control purposes.
  • Compatibility: Designed for use within the spec-kit project structure with a .specify/ directory.

Quick Start

Run the command: /create-branch "Add user authentication feature" to create a feature branch.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Git feature branch creation with sequential naming?▼

Automate Git feature branch creation by generating script-based branches using sequential numbers. This approach ensures consistent naming conventions for projects requiring structured version control tracking.

Can I use timestamped naming for Git feature branches in spec-kit projects?▼

Yes, you can use timestamped naming for Git feature branches in spec-kit projects. The tool generates branch names with timestamps to support version control purposes within the `.specify/` directory structure.

What is the best way to create a feature branch from a project description?▼

The best way to create a feature branch from a project description is using automated script generation. The tool reads your configuration settings and project description to produce a correctly named Git branch.

Does spec-kit-git-feature require a specific directory structure to work?▼

Yes, spec-kit-git-feature requires a `.specify/` directory within your spec-kit project structure. This directory ensures compatibility and proper configuration reading for automated branch generation.

How do I create a feature branch using the command line in spec-kit?▼

To create a feature branch in spec-kit, run the `/create-branch` command followed by your project description. This generates a new Git feature branch with an automatically generated name.

When should I use sequential branch naming instead of timestamped naming?▼

Use sequential branch naming when you need ordered, incremental tracking of features. Use timestamped naming when you need precise chronological version control records for your Git branches.
