Scope

Git as a local tool: branches and worktrees, rebase and merge, conflicts, commit granularity and messages, history rewriting and its guardrails, recovering work that appears to be gone, bisect and history archaeology, hooks and signing, submodules and subtrees, and the mechanics of finishing a branch.

The line against the github skill matters enough to state from both sides. That skill says:

Anything git alone can do offline is out of scope here; this skill starts where GitHub does.

The pairing sentence for this one: anything that needs GitHub the platform is out of scope here; this skill ends where GitHub begins. Pull requests, issues, Actions, rulesets and branch protection, releases, and every gh invocation belong to github. Pushing and fetching appear here only where the local consequences are the point — what a lease actually protects, what a rewrite does to collaborators.
