Git Workflow Conventions

Quick Start

Commit Format

All commits follow Conventional Commits:

<type>(<scope>): <description>

[optional body]

[optional footer]

Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, chore, build, ci

Scopes: Define project-specific scopes in AGENTS.md. Common examples: api, ui, db, auth, build, cursor

Agentic workflow commits: Use chore(cursor): for commands/rules/plans, docs(cursor): for reference docs.

Branch Naming

Default model: personal dev branch (e.g., ryan, erik).

Feature branches are optional for exceptional isolation needs.
Issue association is done through commit footer links, not branch naming.

PR Review Prefixes

Prefix	Meaning	Blocking
`major:`	Must fix	Yes
`minor:`	Should fix	No
`nit:`	Tiny improvement	No
`suggestion:`	Loose idea	No
`question:`	Clarification	No
`praise:`	Positive feedback	No

Use "we"/"the code" instead of "you" in review comments.

Issue Tracker Integration

Configure your issue tracker in AGENTS.md:

Magic words auto-close on merge: Closes {PREFIX}-XXX, Fixes {PREFIX}-XXX, Resolves {PREFIX}-XXX
Link without closing: Refs {PREFIX}-XXX

Examples:

Linear: branch ryan, footer Closes N43-123
Jira: branch erik, footer Closes PROJ-456
GitHub: branch ryan, footer Closes #789

PR Workflow

Squash commits into logical chunks
Rebase onto main (never merge)
Use --force-with-lease when pushing after rebase
