This skill provides Git-based versioning for geospatial datasets, enabling tracking of changes to formats like GeoJSON, Shapefile, and GeoParquet. It solves the problem of managing spatial data lineage, resolving merge conflicts in geospatial formats, and building reproducible analysis pipelines. Use it when versioning spatial data, tracking dataset transformations, or collaborating on geospatial projects requiring change history and conflict resolution.

Instructions
Core Capabilities
- Spatial data versioning: Track changes to GeoJSON, Shapefile, GeoParquet
- Lineage tracking: Dataset provenance, transformation history, audit trail
- Collaboration: Merge strategies for spatial data conflicts (geometry-aware diff)
- Reproducibility: Version-controlled analysis pipelines with spatial checksums
- Branch strategies: Feature-branch workflows for spatial analyses
