EverMind-AI /new-branch
Cut a new branch for the GitHub repository.
Branch model
main = default and protected branch
feat/* = feature work
fix/* = bug fixes
docs/* = documentation-only changes
ci/* = CI, build, and developer-experience changes
chore/* = repository maintenance
refactor/* = behavior-preserving code structure changes
Steps
- Ask (or infer) the change type:
feat,fix,docs,ci,chore, orrefactor. - Update
mainfirst:git checkout main git pull --ff-only - Create the branch with a kebab-case slug:
git checkout -b <type>/<short-slug> - Keep the branch scoped to one purpose and open a pull request back to
main.
Naming
feat/add-agentic-rerank,fix/empty-profile-crash,docs/quickstart-config,ci/check-github-docs.- Lowercase, hyphen-separated, no spaces, concise.
Never commit directly to main — always use a branch and pull request.
