Git workflows
Git workflows refer to the overall process, sequence, and practices that a team adopts, when using Git, to streamline the development process and improve collaboration. Workflows sometimes encompass the entire development process, including how branches are used, and they define how and when code is integrated, tested, and deployed.
Some common Git workflows include the following:
- Git Flow: This is a structured workflow where separate branches are to be used for features, releases, and hotfixes. In this process, you and your collaborators will create a new branch for a new feature or bug fix and continue working in it until it is completed. This means there will be no merge into the default or main branch for a long time. These are called long-lived branches.
Git Flow is one of the earliest established branching flows. However, it is rarely used as there are some newer workflows that are considered superior and better practice.
