Finish Feature

Process

1. Verify Current Branch

Run git branch --show-current:

• If main/master: Ask which feature branch to merge
• If feature branch: Confirm this branch

2. Check Working Directory

Run git status:

• Uncommitted changes? Ask: commit or stash?
• Clean? Proceed

3. Store Feature Branch Name

FEATURE_BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)

4. Switch to Main

Determine main branch (git branch --list main master), then:

git checkout main  # or master

5. Pull Latest

git pull origin main  # or master

6. Merge Feature Branch

git merge $FEATURE_BRANCH

Conflicts? List files via git status, wait for user resolution: git add . + git commit

7. Push

git push origin main  # or master

8. Delete Feature Branch?

Ask user:

Local:

git branch -d $FEATURE_BRANCH

Remote:

git push origin --delete $FEATURE_BRANCH

9. Confirm Completion

Output:

• Merged branch: <feature-branch-name>
• Push status
• Deletion status (if applicable)

Constraints

• Pull main before merge
• Verify clean working dir before branch switch
• Never force push to main
• User resolves conflicts
• Always ask before deleting branches

Example

User: "Finish user-auth feature"

1. On feature/user-auth, git status clean
2. git checkout main && git pull origin main
3. git merge feature/user-auth && git push origin main
4. Ask: Delete branch? → User confirms
5. Output: "Feature 'user-auth' merged to main, pushed, branch deleted"
