the pull-request collaboration model

3.
proposed by Vincent Driessen
 master and develop are long-lived branches
 feature-, release- and hotfix- branches gets
deleted when they are finished
 suitable for projects with traditional release
cycles and semantic versioning
git-flow

4.
github flow
master
small-bugfix
awesome-feature
when deployment happens often
 master branch is always deployable
 all development happens in topic branches
 topic branches are verified before merging
 suitable for more agile environments with
shorter development cycles and regular
deployments

5.
pull request is branch to branch
topic branches gets deleted after they are merged
work in topic branches - use pull requests
develop
initialize pull-request
my-feature →develop

git log will show you the history

7.
write helpful commit messages
git commit -m “Fix login bug” Redirect user to the requested page after login
https://trello.com/path/to/relevant/card
Users were being redirected to the home page
after login. It is better to send them back to
the page they had originally requested before
they were redirected to the login form.
* Store requested path in a session variable
* Redirect to the stored location after
successfully logging in the user

rebase
develop
my-feature
master
develop
my-feature
git rebase develop
moves the base of the topic branch to develop
the commits are discarded and the patches
reapplied to the new branch, creating new commits

15.
rebase vs merge
rebase
 use only on a short-lived local
topic branch
 makes the history cleaner
 will update your work to be
based on the latest upstream
development
merge
 when a branch has been shared
with other developers
 is non-destructive
 can make history harder to
follow if there are many merge
commits

16.
summary
 choose and follow a branching strategy
 take advantage of the staging area
 be mindful of the history
 never rewrite history on shared branches
