claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix PR base branch default should respect worktree base, not repo default [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The "Create PR" button in the Claude Code UI should default to the branch the current worktree was created from, rather than the repository's default branch, to avoid incorrect PR targets.

Guidance

• Identify the current worktree's base branch by checking the merge-base or upstream tracking branch.
• Use the gh pr create --base <branch> command from the terminal as a temporary workaround to specify the correct base branch.
• Consider modifying the UI to retrieve the current worktree's base branch and default to it when creating a PR.
• Verify the correct base branch is used by checking the PR's target branch after creation.

Example

No code snippet is provided as it is not clearly supported by the issue.

Notes

This solution assumes that the gh pr create command is available and functional. The UI modification would require additional development and testing.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: using gh pr create --base <branch> from the terminal allows users to specify the correct base branch until a permanent fix is implemented in the UI.
