+# ForkFolio Workspace Rules
+
+## Version Control Workflow
+- **Commit and Push After Every Change**: Whenever you modify, create, or delete project files in `recipe-manager/`, automatically stage the changes, commit them with a clear commit message (`git -C recipe-manager commit -m "..."`), and push them to the `main` branch on GitLab (`git -C recipe-manager push`) before finishing the task.
+- **Git Repository Location**: The Git repository root is located inside the `recipe-manager` subdirectory (`c:\Users\Chris\Documents\Antigravity Projects\ForkFolio\recipe-manager`), not the parent workspace folder.
