Git Branching

Choose the right Git branching strategy for your team size.

Git branching strategies: Trunk-Based (everyone commits to main, feature flags for WIP) — best for: small teams, fast shipping. GitHub Flow (feature branches + PRs to main) — best for: most teams, simple and effective. GitFlow (develop, feature, release, hotfix branches) — best for: large teams with scheduled releases. For solo developers: commit to main or use short-lived feature branches. For teams of 2-10: GitHub Flow. For 10+: consider GitFlow or trunk-based with feature flags.
