Git & GitHub Best Practices for Collaborative Projects
I’ve been working on several group projects and want to make sure I’m following the best practices when using Git and GitHub in collaborative environments. Here are a few questions:

How do you manage branching effectively in a team?
Do you have a Git workflow (e.g., GitFlow, GitHub Flow) that you prefer?
What strategies do you use for handling merge conflicts?
Would love to hear how others structure their GitHub repositories and workflows for team collaboration!

I’ve found that GitFlow works great for larger teams, especially with separate branches for features, development, and production. For merge conflicts, it’s always helpful to keep your branches up to date with the main branch, and if a conflict arises, take your time to understand the changes on both sides. Also, using pull request templates and code reviews helps streamline the process.

This is an interesting discussion I will also look into it further
