## Git workflow This repo uses a continuous delivery workflow. This enables code to be deployed to production at any time if neccessary and simplifies the release process. ### Workflow diagram <img width="1039" alt="git-workflow" src="https://github.com/projectNEWM/newm-web/assets/5877597/c7d82247-e0a3-4136-9b23-2e29a0b9e181"> In the above diagram, branches are categorized as follows: #### Master branch The master branch contains production ready code. #### Story branches Story branches are for work items that could be presented to users as soon as they're merged into master. #### Feature branches Feature branches are for work that cannot be completed in a single ticket. They can be merged into master once the work is at a state where it could be presented to users. #### Release branches These are very short lived branches that correspond to a tagged commit which is deployed to production. They should contain minimal changes and are largely just to create a snapshot of the master branch so that work can continue without affecting the release.
