Git workflow

Branches

Branch	Purpose	Who merges
main	Production code, always deployable	Reviewer after PR approval
feat/<name>	New features	You create, reviewer merges
fix/<name>	Bug fixes	You create, reviewer merges
chore/<name>	Maintenance, deps, docs	You create, reviewer merges
hotfix/<name>	Critical production fixes	You create, reviewer merges

Workflow

1. Pull the latest main
2. Create your branch from main
3. Make small, focused commits using semantic commit format
4. Push your branch
5. Open a PR, request review
6. Address feedback
7. Reviewer squash-merges into main

Rules

• Never push directly to main
• Never merge your own PRs
• All commits must be signed (SSH)
• Keep PRs small and focused - one concern per PR
• Rebase on main if your branch falls behind
