Repository

The repository branching strategy is based on the GitFlow model. The main branches are:

• main

• develop

• feature-*

Branching

The main branch is the main branch of the repository. It contains the latest stable version of the code. The develop branch is the main branch for development. All new features are merged into this branch. The feature-* branches are used for developing new features. They are branched off the develop branch and merged back into it when the feature is complete.

Releasing

Each feature-* branch releases new alpha versions of the code (Trigger: manual). When a feature is complete, the feature-* branch is merged into the develop branch. This will create a new rc version and release this. When the develop branch is ready for a new release, it is merged into the main branch. This then will create a new stable release version of the code.
