git-workflow

A guide to using Git, the version-control system that records code changes and supports collaboration. It covers branches, commit messages, and pull requests, which are proposed changes for review.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose a branching approach, write consistent commit messages, manage feature and bug-fix branches, and prepare pull requests.
Why use it?
It gives a shared way to organize changes and review them before they reach the main codebase. It also makes commit history easier to understand.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

git-workflow scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

feat(auth): add OAuth2 login support

Implement Google and GitHub OAuth2 providers.
Users can now link multiple social accounts.

Closes #123

The payment service returns null for cancelled transactions.
Added null check to prevent TypeError.

Fixes #456

Branching Strategies

GitHub Flow (Recommended for most teams)

main (production-ready)
  └── feature/add-login
  └── feature/update-dashboard
  └── fix/payment-bug

Rules:

  • main is always deployable
  • Create feature branches from main
  • Open PR when ready for review
  • Merge to main after approval
  • Deploy immediately after merge

Git Flow (For scheduled releases)

main (production)
develop (integration)
  └── feature/add-login
  └── release/v1.2.0
  └── hotfix/critical-bug

Rules:

  • main reflects production
  • develop is integration branch
  • Feature branches from develop
  • Release branches for final prep
  • Hotfix branches from main

Branch Naming Convention

<type>/<ticket>-<description>

Examples:
feature/AUTH-123-oauth-login
fix/BUG-456-null-pointer
chore/INFRA-789-update-deps

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
