Git Workflow

This lesson is part of Git · All levels

Summary

Workflow determines how teams use branches to collaborate. Git Flow separates the main branch into play for release, develop for integration, as well as branch features, hotfixes, and releases. A simpler alternative is branch workflow and GitHub Flow which is centered on pull requests.

Key points

Git Flow separates play/production, develop, and branch features/fix/release
Feature branch workflow: one branch for one task and then merged via PR
Commit small and often easy review and rollback
The main branch should be protected and always ready for use
