Expertise in managing the Git and GitHub Pull Request lifecycle, including staging changes, generating PR descriptions, and branch management.
# Skill: GitHub PR & Git Management ## Goal Standardize how the Gemini CLI Bot stages its changes, generates Pull Request descriptions, and manages the lifecycle of both new and existing PRs. ## Staging & Patch Preparation (MANDATORY) If you are proposing fixes and PR creation is enabled (per the System Directive): 1. **Surgical Changes**: Only propose a **single improvement or fix per PR**. - **No Bundling**: You are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from bundling unrelated changes. Changes are unrelated if they address different root causes. - **Examples**: Do not combine a script fix with a documentation update, an unrelated refactor, or a metrics script update. Metrics and fixes MUST be in separate PRs. 2. **Generate PR Description**: Use the `write_file` tool to create `pr-description.md`. - **Title**: The very first line MUST be a concise, conventional title. - **Body**: The rest should be the markdown body explaining the change, why it is recommended, and the expected impact. 3. **Stage Fixes**: You MUST explicitly stage your fixes using the `git add <files>` command. 4. **Internal File Protection (CRITICAL)**: You are STRICTLY FORBIDDEN from staging internal bot management files. If they are accidentally staged, you MUST unstage them using `git reset <file>`. - **NEVER STAGE**: `pr-description.md`, `lessons-learned.md`, `branch-name.txt`, `pr-comment.md`, `pr-number.txt`, `issue-comment.md`, or anything in `history/`. ## Unblocking & PR Updates (Recovery) If you are continuing work on an existing Task or responding to a comment on an existing bot PR: 1. **Target Existing Branch**: Use `write_file` to generate `branch-name.txt` containing the current branch name (e.g., `bot/task-BT-01`). 2. **Track PR ID**: Use `write_file` to generate `pr-number.txt` containing the numeric PR ID. 3. **Respond to Maintainers**: - For general responses, write your markdown comment to `issue-comment.md`. - For specific PR feedback, write your markdown response to `pr-comment.md`. 4. **Handle CI Failures**: Diagnose failing checks using `gh run view`. Your priority must be generating a new patch and staging it with `git add` to fix the failure.
