Branch Name Extension is a free Chrome add-on designed for web developers who need to create Git branches with ticket names from Agile project management tools like Jira or YouTrack. Git prohibits special characters in branch names, so this extension performs basic regex transformations on ticket names to convert them into valid branch names. For example, it will change "Feature 535 Add a login & sign up component" to "Feature-535-Add-a-login-sign-up-component".

This Chrome extension simplifies the process of creating branch names in alignment with Git requirements, making it easier for developers to maintain consistency between project management tools and version control systems.
