git-workflow

To create a feature branch, run the command to branch directly from the latest staging environment. This ensures your new development work starts with the most recently integrated code, preventing integration drift and reducing merge conflicts later in the cycle.

You can synchronize your feature branch with staging by using a rebase workflow. Rebasing replays your local commits on top of the updated staging branch, ensuring a linear, clean project history without introducing unnecessary merge commit artifacts.

You should clean up commits using interactive rebase before preparing a Pull Request. This allows you to squash, reorder, or edit commit messages, ensuring your PR history remains concise and comprehensible for reviewers evaluating the feature integration.

Yes, this Git workflow supports dedicated hotfix workflows for production branches. When critical issues arise, you can apply fixes directly to main and synchronize them back downstream, ensuring rapid deployment without disrupting active feature development.

During synchronization via rebasing, the workflow provides structured conflict resolution processes. When conflicts occur, you resolve them directly in your local environment, allowing the rebase to continue and ensuring the feature branch integrates cleanly with staging.
