The big picture Original blog by Vincent Driessen http://nvie.com/git-model
Repository relationships http://nvie.com/git-model
Main branches master used for production releases develop used for integration and regression testing http://nvie.com/git-model
Feature branches http://nvie.com/git-model
Release branches Branched from develop when it almost reflects the desired new release Bug fixes for the release are applied here No new features may be added to this branch New feature development can continue in parallel on the develop branch
Hotfix Branches Are like release branches, but for bug fixes http://nvie.com/git-model
Support Branches If master has moved on to a new and a hotfix must be applied to a older version ( e.g 1.x): create a support-1.x branch (if none exists) based on the newest 1.x tag in master create a branch (e.g. hotfix-1.1.1), based on support-1.x fix the bug and merge hotfix-1.1.1 back into support-1.x Do this for other older major releases as necessary The support branch effectively becomes a master branch for a past version.
