• Commits should only include changes from the same topic in a single commit.
• Commit message subject: Subject should be concise summary of what happened.
• Commit message body: More detailed explanation (what is now different? Reason, etc...)

• Consider creating a written branch convention to avoid collisions or mistakes.
  • e.g. Few branches, relatively small commits, high-quality testing & QA standards
• Consider creating long-running and short-lived branches to enhance structures & workflows.
  • e.g. Release, Dev, Feature, Stages, etc…
• Avoid direct commits. Always push the code to a development brush to be tested and reviewed before committing to it.
• Take inspiration for branching from well structures already existing models such as “Github Flow” or “GitFlow”.

• Pull Requests: Fork (Personal Copy) -> Make Changes -> Make Pull request to include changes.
