Simplified GIT Wrokflow

Starting a New Feature

git checkout develop
git pull --rebase
git checkout -b feature-my-new-feature
Make commits...

Finishing a New Feature

git checkout develop
git pull --rebase
git checkout feature-my-new-feature
git rebase develop
- Solve any conflicts, then git rebase --continue until done.
git log --oneline
- Copy the commit hash previous to your first commit on the feature.
Squash your commits: git rebase -i [paste commit hash]
- You'll see a list of your commits next to the word pick
- Change all pick to s except the top most pick
- Save and exit the VIM editor.
Create a commit message for your squashed commits
- Remove all lines not beginning with #.
- Add a commit message at the top of the file (no # in front).
- Save and exit the VIM editor.
git push origin feature-my-new-feature

Creating a Pull-Request

Locate your feature branch in the Branches tab in your github repo.
Click Create Pull Request and leave a short description of the feature you finished.

Responding to a Change Request

To update your pull request with changes, simply continue making commits in your feature branch.

Do not squash these new commits (Or, you'll end up with conflicts). Instead just push them to github as normal.

When you branch has been merged, remove your local feature branch.

Solving Pull-Request Conflicts

git checkout develop
git pull --rebase origin develop

If there are conflicts with develop use the following command

git checkout . && git reset --hard origin/develop

git checkout feature-my-new-feature
git rebase develop
- Solve any conflicts, then git rebase --continue until done.
git push origin feature-my-new-feature

Happy Coding! ✌️
