Branching and Merging

Wed, 31 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Branches let you develop changes in parallel. Merging integrates a branch into another branch, resolving conflicts as needed.

Good practice is to keep branches focused and merge them in small, reviewable units.

Commit messages should describe the change and its purpose in a concise form. They help collaborators and future readers understand why a change happened.

What is Git?

Git is a distributed version control system that records changes as commits.

It supports branching and merging so multiple lines of work can progress in parallel and be combined later.
