How can I automate my Git branching workflows?

You can automate Git branching workflows using tools like Git hooks, CI/CD pipelines, or GitHub Actions. What specific automation are you looking for?

I'm interested in using GitHub Actions. Can you give me an example?

Sure! You can create a GitHub Action that triggers on push events to automatically create a new branch. Would you like a sample YAML configuration?

Yes, please! That would be really helpful.

Here's a simple example:

name: Auto Branch Creation
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - main
jobs:
  create-branch:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - name: Create new branch
        run: |
          git checkout -b new-feature-branch
          git push origin new-feature-branch
