About this skill
Sync Production
Server-side merge of main → production using the GitHub merges API. No local checkout, no working tree changes.
Quick Usage
.claude/skills/sync-production/scripts/sync-production.sh
What It Does
- Fetches
origin/mainandorigin/production - Lists the commits that would be merged
- Pre-checks for conflicts with
git merge-tree(no working tree touched) - If conflicts → stops with the conflicting paths and exits non-zero. Resolve manually, then re-run.
- If clean → calls
POST /repos/pollinations/pollinations/mergesto create the merge commit onproductionserver-side
Exit Codes
0— merge succeeded, or nothing to merge2— merge would conflict (paths printed)3— GitHub merges API rejected the request (branch protection, missing branches, etc.)
On Conflict
The skill stops and reports the conflicting files. Don't try to force it — surface the reason in chat and resolve manually:
git checkout production && git pull
git merge main # resolve conflicts in editor
git push origin production
