gitflow SKILL.md skillA

gitflow from mindrally/skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add mindrally/skills/gitflow@git:20261008.7682ca7

Pins git:20261008.7682ca7 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Branching, merging, versioning, and release conventions for the Gitflow workflow, covering main/develop branches, feature/release/hotfix branches, semantic versioning, and pull request rules. Use when creating a branch, naming a branch, planning a release or hotfix, writing a commit message, or setting up branch protection for a repository that follows Gitflow.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Gitflow

This skill covers the Gitflow branching model: the two long-lived branches, the three supporting branch types, commit message conventions, semantic versioning, and the release and hotfix processes.

## Workflow for a Feature Change

1. **Sync develop** — Run `git checkout develop && git pull origin develop` so the feature branches from the latest development state.
2. **Create the feature branch** — Run `git checkout -b feature/123-user-authentication`, using the naming convention `feature/[issue-id]-descriptive-name`.
3. **Commit with conventional messages** — Use `type(scope): description` for every commit (see Commit Messages below).
4. **Rebase or merge develop in** — Before opening a PR, bring the branch up to date: `git fetch origin && git rebase origin/develop` (or merge, per team convention).
5. **Open a pull request into develop** — Require at least one approval and passing CI checks; never commit directly to `develop`.
6. **Merge and clean up** — After merge, delete the feature branch both locally and on the remote: `git branch -d feature/123-user-authentication && git push origin --delete feature/123-user-authentication`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add mindrally/skills/gitflow@sha256:770d41cf9548facf

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.7682ca7, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
