SourceCodeGit_WorkFlow

Proposed Git Workflow

Goals

1. Improve stability of both the server and client software.
2. Lay the foundation for feature branches should we ever decide to use them.

Branches

master = development (currently trunk)

server_stable

client_release_major_minor = release major.minor

Initial state after migration

copy trunk to master

copy server_stable to server_stable

create client_release_X_X as needed

Local repositories

Developers can create feature branches or separate server and client branches in their local repositories.

Development

All new code goes into master.

Hot fixes get merged into server_stable and/or client_release_X_X if needed.
