 ## Branch Naming Convention
 
-Every branch **must** follow one of these prefixes to identify the level of change:
+Git branch names cannot include spaces or colons, so we use slash-prefixed names. Pick the prefix that matches your change type and follow it with an optional scope and a short, kebab-case description.
 
 | Prefix | Semver Impact | When to Use |
 |--------|---------------|-------------|
-| `fix(scope): ...` | Patch | Bug fixes, corrections, minor adjustments |
-| `feat(scope): ...` | Minor | New features, new filters, new command support |
-| `chore(scope): ...` | Major | Breaking changes, API changes, removed functionality |
+| `fix/` | Patch | Bug fixes, corrections, minor adjustments |
+| `feat/` | Minor | New features, new filters, new command support |
+| `chore/` | Major | Breaking changes, API changes, removed functionality |
 
-The **scope** in parentheses indicates which part of the project is concerned (e.g. `git`, `kubectl`, `filter`, `tracking`, `config`).
-
-**Branch title must clearly describe what is affected and the goal.**
+Combine the prefix with a scope if it adds clarity (e.g. `git`, `kubectl`, `filter`, `tracking`, `config`) and finish with a descriptive slug: `fix/<scope>-<description>` or `feat/<description>`.
 
 Examples:
 ```
-fix(git): log-filter-drops-merge-commits
-feat(kubectl): add-pod-list-filter
-chore(proxy): remove-deprecated-flags
+fix/git-log-filter-drops-merge-commits
+feat/kubectl-add-pod-list-filter
+chore/release-pipeline-cleanup
