Manage branches following team conventions and keeping work organized.

Commands

git branch
git branch -a
git checkout -b <branch>
git switch -c <branch>
git fetch origin

Branch Naming Convention

claude/<issue-number>-<short-slug>

Examples:

```
claude/123-fix-login-bug
```
```
claude/456-add-user-auth
```
```
claude/789-refactor-api
```

Workflow

Ensure clean state

git status
git fetch origin

Update main branch

git checkout main
git pull --rebase

Create feature branch

git checkout -b claude/123-fix-login-bug

Push branch to remote

git push -u origin claude/123-fix-login-bug

Policies

Never work directly on main/master
Always branch from an up-to-date main
Use descriptive branch names with issue numbers
Verify clean working directory before switching branches
Delete merged branches to keep repo tidy
