Assess and Rename Current Branch
- If user has specified a new name, apply it; otheriwse, get the current branch name with
git branch --show-current - Get a summary of what's actually been done on this branch:
git log main..HEAD --onelineto see commitsgit diff main..HEAD --name-onlyto see changed files
- Compare the branch name against the actual changes:
- Does the name still accurately describe the work?
- Is the scope broader or narrower than the name implies?
- Does the name follow the
<prefix>/<short-description>convention?
- If the name is still accurate, say so and stop
- If a rename is warranted, suggest a better name and explain why
- Format:
<prefix>/<short-description>— all lowercase, hyphens, imperative mood (add-featurenotadds-featureoradding-feature)
- Format:
- Await approval — if accepted:
- Rename locally:
git branch -m <new-name> - Rename on remote:
git push origin HEAD:<new-name>thengit push origin --delete <old-name> - Set upstream:
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/<new-name>
