- The master branch is the stable branch. Must be always in a releasable state.
- Feature (named feature/issue) branches are created from master (issue is the tracker issue number that describes the feature).
- When a feature is complete the corresponding feature branch is merged into the master branch.
- Features may be experimental and branches discarded without corrupting the stability of the master branch.
- When master has enough stable features it is released
- If an issue (typically a bug requiring immediate attention) in master is detected a hotfix/issue branch is created from master (issue is the tracker issue number that reports the problem)
- Once the hotfix is complete it is merged to master and any open feature branch (if needed)
Back to the CI guide.
