landing_strategy

Scope: project • Default: cherry_pick_local

How a completed task's accepted commits land on the configured landing branch.

Positions

Position	Effect
cherry_pick_local	Cherry-pick the task branch's accepted commits onto the local landing branch. No push. Conflicts abort and surface as an escalation.
cherry_pick_with_push	Same as above, then git push the landing branch to origin.
manual_pr	Push the branch, open a PR via gh pr create, and stop. You review and merge.

Notes

• Guildhall can also read a project-level landingBranch override from ./.guildhall/config.yaml. If unset, it lands onto whatever branch the repo is currently on when the orchestrator starts.
• Older files may still use the previous merge_policy key. Guildhall maps that forward for compatibility.
