speckit-git-validate

To enforce Git feature-branch naming conventions, you can validate current branch names against specific patterns like 001-feature-name or timestamp prefixes such as 20260319-143022-feature-name. This ensures branches follow your required sequential or timestamp formats.

Yes, you can check for a matching specs directory by validating the current Git branch name and locating a corresponding specs/<prefix>-* directory. This verifies that a valid feature branch has the expected spec folder structure present.

Supported Git branch naming patterns include sequential prefixes like 001-feature-name and timestamp prefixes like 20260319-143022-feature-name. These patterns enforce consistent formatting for feature branches in your repository.

If Git is unavailable or the repository is not in a Git workspace, the validation process provides graceful degradation. This means it handles missing Git environments without failing, ensuring the process exits smoothly.

To validate a timestamp-prefixed Git branch name, check it against the pattern ^[0-9]{8}-[0-9]{6}-. This recognizes timestamp formats like 20260319-143022-feature-name and verifies the corresponding spec directory exists.
