Branching and Commits

Branches

This repo is working in Git Flow specification. There are two work branches: develop and main. These branches are rule-protected on GitHub. Check out repo's settings for details.

Custom branch naming pattern based on Git Flow: [branch-type]/[ticket-id]-[description-in-kebab-case]

As a developer, you will need to know how to create release, hotfix and feature branches.

To create branch based on ticket:

• Enter ticket's screen on GitHub,
• On right metadata's column, find "Development" section,
• Click on "Create branch" link,
• GitHub will generate most of branch's name, just rearrange it to follow required naming convention,
• Click "Create branch",

For Refactor Request create "hotfix" branch.

Branches must always be created from develop, main branch is only used for releases.

• feat: A new value,
• fix: A bug fix,
• refactor: A change, that neither fixes a bug nor adds a value,
