auto-git

Commit and push local project changes to GitHub, with optional repo creation and deployment hints.

GitHub Deploy Skill

This skill provides a reusable PowerShell script for Windows to automate:

1. Git checks
2. Commit creation
3. Push to remote branch
4. Optional GitHub repository creation (via GitHub CLI)
5. Optional deployment hints (for Streamlit flow)

Included file

• github-deploy-skill.ps1

Parameters

• -CommitMessage (required): commit message text
• -Repo (optional): GitHub repository in owner/repo format
• -Branch (optional): target branch, default main
• -CreateRepo (optional switch): create repo with gh if missing
• -SkipDeployHint (optional switch): do not print deployment hint

Usage

From any Git project folder:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\github-deploy-skill.ps1 -CommitMessage "feat: update" -Repo "owner/repo" -Branch "main"

Create repository automatically:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\github-deploy-skill.ps1 -CommitMessage "init" -Repo "owner/new-repo" -CreateRepo

Expected output

• Success: commit and push completed
• Failure: explicit error with reason (missing command, auth, push/network, remote config)

Requirements

• Git installed and available in PATH
• Network access to remote Git host
• If -CreateRepo is used: GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated

Notes

• Works with repositories that do not yet have a first commit.
• If origin does not exist, pass -Repo and the script will add it automatically.
