Git Branching Workflow Basics
Keep branches tidy and releasable
This guide describes a simple git workflow with main as stable, short-lived feature branches, review gates, and release tagging for predictable deployments.

Branch naming
Use prefixes like feature/, fix/, chore/ with short slugs for clarity.
Short-lived branches
Keep changes small, rebase frequently on main, and avoid long-lived divergence.
Review and testing
Open pull requests early, run tests, and require at least one peer review before merging.
Release tagging
Tag releases from main with semantic versions; document changes in a simple changelog.
