Your tasks now are to create a branch called "develop" and set it as default branch.

Step 1 - Warming up - Mastering the basics

Before continuing, it's important to be familiar with our branch model and a few more git tricks.

Branch model

When working in teams, it's crucial to coordinate the parallel work of all team members.

In order to improve our workflow, a few years ago, we've adopted Vincent Driessen's branch model described here and we are going to use this same branch model during our onboard.

Git Flow

git-flow is a tool that helps to follow Vincent Driessen's branch model. You can use it though it's not necessary.

Our conventions

There are a few conventions we use here and it's important for you to be aware of these:

1. Feature branches are:

   • prepended with feature/ i.e. feature/new-user-screen
   • should have meaningful names - they should give good hints about what modifications to the system they have
   • should not have your name on it

2. Bugfix branches are:

   • prepended with bugfix/ i.e. bugfix/user-list

Rebase

These are some good links you can read about the git command rebase :

• Git Rebasing
• What is git rebase?
• Bonus: Merging vs. Rebasing
