Basic Workflow

Basic Workflow

# Example flow, working on feature X, current branch is master
# This is not the only way to do it. The most important thing is that you want to keep linear history on the master branch.
 
# Create a local topic branch for all work
git checkout -b /topic/{username}/feature-x
  
# Make changes, test, then commit changes to topic branch
git commit
  
# Make sure master is at latest
git checkout master
git pull -r
  
# Move your changes from the feature branch onto master maintaining linear history
git checkout /topic/{username}/feature-x
git rebase master
git checkout master
git merge /topic/{username}/feature-x
# You should see a message saying "Fast-forward", which means your feature commits were played on top of master, not merged
