Weekly Git Reset Audit
Raw
weekly-git-reset-audit.prompt.md

Scan all Git repositories in this folder and bring me up to date.

Phase 1: Inspect only

  • Report repo name, current branch, working tree status, uncommitted changes, local branches, tracking status, ahead/behind status, stale branches, and branches whose upstream no longer exists.
  • Fetch remotes safely and identify stale remote-tracking refs that can be pruned.
  • Do not modify anything yet.

Phase 2: Summarize

  • Summarize per repo:
    • uncommitted work needing a decision
    • safe cleanup candidates
    • recommended actions

Rules

  • Do not discard code, stash, reset, delete branches, or push without my approval.
  • Do not touch protected branches: main, master, develop, dev, release, production.
  • Never delete the current branch.

After I approve:

  • prune stale remote-tracking refs
  • delete only safe local branches that are already merged and no longer have an upstream
  • refresh main branches using fetch + fast-forward only
