Summary

Fixes #3282 — part of #3277. Last script port in the porting phase: extensions/git/scripts/{bash,powershell}/ now has Python twins in extensions/git/scripts/python/.

Changes

  • git_common.pyhas_git, effective_branch_name, check_feature_branch (port of git-common.sh)
  • initialize_repo.py — repo init with configurable initial commit message
  • auto_commit.py — per-event auto-commit, mirroring the line-based git-config.yml parser including the default/explicit-false precedence rules
  • create_new_feature_branch.py — full port: slug generation with stop-word filtering and acronym handling, sequential numbering across specs/local branches/remote refs, branch_template/branch_prefix with scoped numbering, GIT_BRANCH_NAME override, 244-byte truncation, SPECIFY_INIT_DIR via the core common.py resolver (same refusal as bash when core scripts are missing)

Same conventions as the merged check-prerequisites PoC and the #3280/#3281 ports: stdlib only, standalone scripts, no runtime wiring changes.

Testing

43 new tests in tests/extensions/git/test_git_extension_python_parity.py. The parity tests run each bash script and its Python twin in identical twin projects and assert matching stdout, exit codes, stderr, and resulting git state (branches created, commit messages). Covers branch creation and commit behavior per the issue's acceptance criteria, plus template validation errors, existing-branch handling, and no-git degradation.

  • uv run pytest tests/extensions/git/ — 97 passed
  • Full suite: 3847 passed, 105 skipped
  • uvx ruff check — clean

Ports git-common, initialize-repo, auto-commit, and
create-new-feature-branch to extensions/git/scripts/python/,
mirroring the bash/PowerShell twins. Parity tests run each bash
script and its Python twin in identical projects and compare
output, exit codes, and resulting git state.

Fixes github#3282

Pull request overview

This PR adds Python equivalents for the extensions/git workflow scripts, aiming to preserve behavior while reducing dual-maintenance across bash/PowerShell. It also introduces a parity-focused test suite to validate the Python ports against the existing bash implementations.

Changes:

  • Added Python ports for create-new-feature-branch, initialize-repo, auto-commit, and shared git helpers.
  • Introduced a parity test suite that runs bash vs Python “twin projects” and compares outcomes.
  • Added unit tests for git_common.py helper behavior.

Comment thread extensions/git/scripts/python/auto_commit.py Outdated
An unreadable config file raised OSError with a full traceback from
_parse_auto_commit_config. Treat it like a missing config: auto-commit
stays disabled. Covered by a chmod-000 test (skipped on non-POSIX and
as root).

_assert_parity now also compares stderr so warning or usage-text
regressions between the bash and Python twins fail the suite. All
existing parity tests pass with the stricter assertion.

…utside-repo callers

Without script_file, core.get_repo_root() falls back to Path.cwd() when
SPECIFY_INIT_DIR is unset and no .specify root is found upward — the
bash twin instead falls back to the script's install location
(.specify/scripts/...). Pass script_file so both twins resolve the
same repo_root; TypeError fallback keeps older cores working.

…back

- Catch (OSError, UnicodeDecodeError) when reading git-config.yml in
  create_new_feature_branch.py, initialize_repo.py, and auto_commit.py
  so invalid UTF-8 config falls back to defaults instead of crashing
  with a traceback.
- Fall back to USERNAME (then "unknown") when USER is unset when
  deriving the branch author token, matching the PowerShell twin's
  Windows-friendly fallback chain.

…_INIT_DIR test

- Add a shared _persist_hint() helper in create_new_feature_branch.py
  and use it for both the JSON-mode stderr hint and the human-readable
  stdout hint, so there is a single place emitting the SPECIFY_FEATURE
  persistence guidance. On Windows (os.name == "nt") it prints
  PowerShell $env:VAR = "..." syntax; elsewhere it keeps the existing
  POSIX export VAR=... syntax (parity with the bash twin).
- Rework test_specify_init_dir_resolves_target_project so SPECIFY_INIT_DIR
  is the only thing that can produce the observed result: the script now
  runs from a separate host_proj (no existing specs, so script/cwd-based
  discovery would yield 001) while SPECIFY_INIT_DIR points at a different
  target_proj that already has an existing spec (007-existing, so the
  override must yield 008). The old version pointed SPECIFY_INIT_DIR at
  the same project the script was installed in, so it passed even if the
  env var were ignored.
