Git — Intelligent Git Operations

Smart git workflow with automatic Conventional Commit message generation.

<essential_principles>

Safety Rules

• Conventional Commits: All commit messages MUST follow type(scope): description format
  • Types: feat, fix, refactor, docs, test, chore, perf, ci, build, style
  • Scope: optional, derived from changed files/directories
  • Description: imperative mood, lowercase, no period
• Destructive operations require user confirmation: push --force, reset --hard, branch -D, rebase on shared branches, clean -f
• Never skip hooks: Do not use --no-verify unless user explicitly requests it
• Smart Commit always active: Analyze staged changes to generate meaningful messages automatically

Operations

status

Analyze repository state and provide actionable summary.

1. Run git status (never use -uall flag)
2. Run git diff --stat for change overview
3. Present:
   • Staged / unstaged / untracked file counts
   • Branch info and upstream tracking status
   • Recommended next action (e.g., "Ready to commit", "Changes need staging")

commit

Generate a Conventional Commit from change analysis.

1. Run git status and git diff --cached (staged) and git diff (unstaged)
2. Run git log --oneline -5 to match existing commit style
3. Analyze changes:
   • Determine type from nature of changes (new feature → feat, bug fix → fix, etc.)
   • Determine scope from affected directories/files
   • Write concise description focusing on "why" not "what"
4. If nothing is staged, ask user what to stage
5. Stage files with specific file names (avoid git add -A or git add .)
6. Commit using HEREDOC format:

   git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
   type(scope): description
   EOF
   )"
   

push

Sync local commits with remote.

1. Check upstream tracking: git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{u}
2. If no upstream, push with -u: git push -u origin <branch>
3. If upstream exists: git push
4. Never force-push without user confirmation

pull

Fetch and integrate remote changes.

1. git pull --rebase (prefer rebase over merge for clean history)
2. If conflicts arise, guide user through resolution

branch

Create, switch, or manage branches.

1. Create: git checkout -b <name> with naming convention type/description (e.g., feat/add-login, fix/header-alignment)
2. Switch: git checkout <name>
3. List: git branch -a with upstream status
4. Delete: git branch -d <name> (use -D only with user confirmation)

merge

Guided merge with conflict resolution support.

1. Check target branch is up to date: git fetch origin
2. Execute merge: git merge <source>
3. If conflicts:
   • List conflicting files
   • Show conflict markers for each file
   • Guide user through resolution options
   • After resolution: git add <resolved-files> && git commit

stash

Temporarily save uncommitted changes.

1. Save: git stash push -m "description"
2. List: git stash list
3. Apply: git stash pop (or apply to keep in stash)

log

View commit history with useful formatting.

1. Default: git log --oneline -20
2. Detailed: git log --oneline --graph --all -20

Examples

/git status
/git commit
/git push
/git branch feat/dark-mode
/git merge main
/git stash save work in progress
/git log

Boundaries

Will:

• Execute git operations with intelligent automation
• Generate Conventional Commit messages from change analysis
• Provide workflow guidance and best practice recommendations
• Handle conflict resolution with step-by-step guidance

Will Not:

• Modify repository configuration without explicit authorization
• Execute destructive operations without user confirmation
• Include project-specific workflow rules (those belong in CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md)
