# Git workflow and versioning

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | User asks for release, version bump, changelog, or branch workflow beyond a single commit. |
| Authority | Human-gated: previews the exact target and consequence before any push, protected-branch action, or force-push, with explicit consent required for protected branches and force-pushes; otherwise reversible local: writes only local commits, tags, and changelog edits; rollback is version control. No remote mutation without the gate. |
| Side effect | Git commits, tags, and changelog edits; protected branches and force-pushes only with explicit consent. |
| Done | History expresses logical change-sets, tags and changelog match shipped contract changes, and no unauthorized protected-branch action occurred. |

## Inputs

Required: the change-set to release or version (working-tree state, staged changes, or committed history since the last tag); the target version bump type or an explicit version string; the branch to operate on.
