Investigates and creates Git branches. Triggered when: branch status check, new branch creation, branch-related errors.
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.

# Branch Investigation ```bash git branch --show-current git status --short git fetch --all git branch -vv git rev-list --count <main-branch>..HEAD 2>/dev/null || echo "0" # Check CLAUDE.md for main branch name ``` Report: current branch, uncommitted changes, remote sync status, commits ahead of main. # Branch Creation ```bash git fetch origin <base-branch> git checkout -b <new-branch> origin/<base-branch> ``` # Error Handling | Error | Action | |-------|--------| | Branch exists | Report to user, suggest alternative or confirm use existing | | Uncommitted changes | `git stash` or commit first | | Remote sync error | `git fetch --all` retry | | Permission error | Report to user | # Conflict Resolution 1. `git status` to identify conflicts 2. Resolve each file 3. `git add <resolved-file>` 4. Continue operation Ask for guidance if resolution is complex. # Completion Report - Current branch name - Branch creation result (if applicable) - Any issues encountered

How to install
mdr add aiskillstore/marketplace/managing-branches@sha256:6816355969c534f6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260113.222b7de, 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.
