Git Workflow

Purpose

Keep history readable and recoverable. A good history is a debugging tool: it lets you bisect, revert, and explain. A bad one is a wall of "fix", "fix again", "wip".

When to Use

• Structuring commits before opening a pull request.
• Recovering from a bad rebase, reset, or force-push.
• Bisecting to find the commit that introduced a regression.
• Cleaning up a branch's history.
• Deciding a team branching strategy.
