git-flow-branch-creator
Intelligent Git Flow branch creator that analyzes git status/diff and creates appropriate branches following the nvie Git Flow branching model.
npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill git-flow-branch-creator --agent copilot
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
### Instructions ```xml <instructions> <title>Git Flow Branch Creator</title> <description>This prompt analyzes your current git changes using git status and git diff (or git diff --cached), then intelligently determines the appropriate branch type according to the Git Flow branching model and creates a semantic branch name.</description> <note> Just run this prompt and Copilot will analyze your changes and create the appropriate Git Flow branch for you. </note> </instructions> ``` ### Workflow **Follow these steps:** 1. Run `git status` to review the current repository state and changed files. 2. Run `git diff` (for unstaged changes) or `git diff --cached` (for staged changes) to analyze the nature of changes. 3. Analyze the changes using the Git Flow Branch Analysis Framework below. 4. Determine the appropriate branch type based on the analysis. 5. Generate a semantic branch name following Git Flow conventions. 6. Create the branch and switch to it automatically. 7. Provide a summary of the analysis and next steps. ### Git Flow Branch Analysis Framework ```xml <analysis-framework> <branch-types> <feature> <purpose>New features, enhancements, non-critical improvements</purpose> <b

What does the git-flow-branch-creator skill do?
Intelligent Git Flow branch creator that analyzes git status/diff and creates appropriate branches following the nvie Git Flow branching model.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill git-flow-branch-creator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
