# Creating a Branch for a GitHub Issue
## Branch Naming Convention
```text
<issue-number>-<issue-title-normalized>
```
**Rules**:
- Prefix with the GitHub issue number
- Follow with the issue title, lowercased, spaces replaced by hyphens
- Strip special characters (`:`, `/`, `(`, `)`, etc.)
- No type prefix (`feat/`, `fix/`, etc.)
**Examples**:
| Issue title | Branch name |
| --------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `feat: document and version-control server config` | `1-document-server-configuration` |
| `fix: UDP tracker down on newTrackon after restart` | `2-udp-tracker-down-on-newtrackon` |
## Workflow
### Step 1 — Confirm the issue number and title
Check the issue draft file (`docs/issues/ISSUE-<N>-*.md`) or the GitHub issue to get the
canonical title. Derive the normalized branch name from it.
### Step 2 — Present the branch name for approval
**Always show the branch name to the user and wait for explicit approval before creating it.**
### Step 3 — Create and switch to the branch locally
Create the branch locally only (do not push to remote at this stage):
```bash
git checkout -b <branch-name>
```
### Step 4 — Push to remote when creating the pull request
The branch is pushed to origin only when creating the pull request. Do not push the branch
to remote immediately after creation—wait until the PR workflow.
