Use when establishing branching strategies, implementing Conventional Commits, creating or reviewing PRs, resolving PR review comments, merging PRs (including CI verification, auto-merge queues, and post-merge cleanup), managing PR review threads, merging PRs with signed commits, handling merge conf

Git Workflow Skill Not Here Releases: github release . BLOCKED PR diagnosis: github project . GitHub only. Everything below the branching and commit sections — pr status.sh , pr merge.sh , the merge gate, review threads — speaks GitHub GraphQL. A GitLab merge request belongs to netresearch gitlab ; the equivalent glab calls are in references/pull request workflow.md § GitHub only . Critical Rules (Non Negotiable) 1. No direct push to main — always open a PR. 2. No merge before all threads resolved ( references/pull request workflow.md ). 3. No squash unless asked — preserves atomic commits, signatures, bisection. 4. No "tested/verified/working" without pasted command output — else say so. 5. No edits to installed skill/plugin cache paths ( ~/.claude/skills/ , ~/.claude/plugins/cache/ , /.bare/ ) — always the repo worktree, verified by pwd . 6. Force push only with force with lease — never plain force . 7. Commit before rebase — add → commit → fetch → rebase → push (a dirty tree aborts it). 8. No editorializing — state what changed, not how good it is ( references/no editorializing.md ).

PR Merge Requirements Before merging: threads resolved, CI green (incl. annotations), rebased, signed, and reviewed (human or bot, on the current head). Rebase only + signed: git merge ff only .
