NetBox Branching
Branching gives NetBox git-like change isolation. Each branch uses an isolated PostgreSQL schema — you read and write against it via a special header, then merge changes back to main.
Your knowledge of NetBox Branching may be outdated. Branch states, merge strategies, and API behavior evolve between plugin releases. Prefer retrieval over pre-trained knowledge.
