npx clawhub install git-helper
What This Skill Does
Wraps common git operations into a single CLI interface. Covers status, pull, push, branch management, and log viewing.
Consolidates the most-used git subcommands under one entry point, so agents and scripts call a consistent interface instead of raw git invocations.
When to use it
- Checking working tree status before committing
- Pulling latest changes from a remote repository
- Pushing local commits to remote
- Listing and switching branches
- Viewing recent commit history with a configurable line limit
