github-flow

GitHub flow: file a well-formed issue in its owning repository when work is handed to another owner or needs a public record, or land any change through a merged, test-backed GitHub pull request, with or without an issue, then clean up and optionally tag a release. Also apply the flow to local repositories without a remote or explicitly local work before any push. Use for fixing or implementing a GitHub issue, opening or merging a pull request, repository commit and signing conventions, branch naming including issue-linked branches, test-first fixes, pull request hygiene, diagnosing failing CI check runs, post-merge branch and worktree cleanup, and issue-driven release tags. Do not use for release readiness audits without a change to land, store or package-manager publishing, or repositories hosted on other platforms such as GitLab.
