merge

SKILL.md

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Check the arguments for flags:

  • --keep, -k → pass --keep to workmux merge (keeps the worktree and tmux window after merging)
  • --no-verify, -n → pass --no-verify to workmux merge

Strip all flags from arguments.

Commit, rebase, and merge the current branch.

This command finishes work on the current branch by:

  1. Committing any staged changes
  2. Rebasing onto the base branch
  3. Running workmux merge to merge and clean up

Step 1: Commit

If there are staged changes, commit them. Use lowercase, imperative mood, no conventional commit prefixes. Skip if nothing is staged.

Step 2: Rebase

Get the base branch from git config:

git config --local --get "branch.$(git branch --show-current).workmux-base"

If no base branch is configured, default to "main".

Rebase onto the local base branch (do NOT fetch from origin first):

git rebase <base-branch>

IMPORTANT: Do NOT run git fetch. Do NOT rebase onto origin/<branch>. Only rebase onto the local branch name (e.g., git rebase main, not git rebase origin/main).

If conflicts occur:

  • BEFORE resolving any conflict, understand what changes were made to each conflicting file in the base branch
  • For each conflicting file, run git log -p -n 3 <base-branch> -- <file> to see recent changes to that file in the base branch
  • The goal is to preserve BOTH the changes from the base branch AND our branch's changes
  • After resolving each conflict, stage the file and continue with git rebase --continue
  • If a conflict is too complex or unclear, ask for guidance before proceeding

Step 3: Merge

Run: workmux merge --rebase --notification [--keep] [--no-verify]

Include --keep only if the --keep flag was passed in arguments. Include --no-verify only if the --no-verify flag was passed in arguments.

This will merge the branch into the base branch and clean up the worktree and tmux window (unless --keep is used).
