A developer is following a feature-branch workflow. They have completed a new feature on `feature/reporting` and have staged all related files. They want to record this work in the local repository with a message that follows the team's convention. Which command should they run?

`git push origin feature/reporting`

`git commit -m "Add reporting feature"`

A developer is working on `feature/payment`. They need to temporarily switch to `main` to fix a critical bug. They have uncommitted changes in `feature/payment` that they do not want to lose or commit yet. What should they do before switching branches?

Run `git checkout main` directly

Run `git push origin feature/payment`

During a merge of `feature/pricing` into `main`, Git reports a conflict in `config.json`. The developer needs to resolve it. What is the correct first step?

Open `config.json`, edit it to the desired final content, then `git add config.json` and `git commit`

Run `git checkout --theirs config.json` and then `git push`

Run `git reset --hard HEAD` to discard the merge and start over

Delete `config.json` and run `git merge --abort`

A developer needs to add a new search feature to an application. The team uses a feature-branch workflow where the `main` branch is always deployable. What is the first step the developer should take to start working on this feature without disrupting `main`?

Create and switch to a new branch: `git checkout -b feature/search`

Commit directly to `main`: `git add . && git commit -m "Add search"`

Stash the current changes and start editing files

Push the current `main` branch to the remote: `git push origin main`
