Re: Was "Re: [RFC] Proposed Git Workflow for Permanent History, Explicit Branch Status, and Developer Continuity" now "Skybuck's GitFlow"

Skybuck's GitFlow V5 has finally been released:

https://github.com/SkybuckFlying/Skybuck-s-Gitflow

https://github.com/SkybuckFlying/Skybuck-s-Gitflow/releases/tag/release-version-0.11

This newer version allows the remote repository to be specified so it's no longer limited to just "origin".

(I consider developing a new versioning system which is similar to this one, but where each commit is automatically versioned, this would make it even easier to re-use existing branch names which would fit git better).

I already posted a new topic about this. Something with opt-in versioning... RFC...

Exact title is this:
[RFC] Adding a native, opt-in versioning system to Git (distinct from tags and branch names)

https://public-inbox.org/git/AM0PR02MB44504C65BDF6C7D4B70652ECB3C9A@AM0PR02MB4450.eurprd02.prod.outlook.com/T/#t

I am considering modifieing the GIT source code via AI to build in this feature. Another idea could be to  create external tools for git, as done for Skybuck's GitFlow.

Which path is followed depends on feasibility of external tools versus the need to build it into git itself.

I think I would prefer it build into git itself to solve this versioning problem once and for all and it makes more sense to re-use branch names.

Plus perhaps branch visualizer update so it respects time flow as well. Perhaps git can already do this with parameters, not sure.

Further notice:

This version/release 0.11 was done on 27 september(month 9) 2025, I just didn't have the time/energy to update the git repo etc.

Also version 0.11 was never properly tested but I did my best to give it a high chance of working.

I have also not yet had the chance to use it, struggling with gitflow/git itself, but getting close to a solution ;) plus BF6 major distraction too ! LOL XD

Bye for now,
  Skybuck.
