- We adopt [Gitflow Design](https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/comparing-workflows/gitflow-workflow). However, we do not have release branches.
- The `master` branch is just a snapshot of the latest stable release. All development should be done in dedicated branches.
**Do not submit PRs against the `master` branch.**
- Checkout a topic branch from the relevant branch, e.g. `develop`, and merge back against that branch.
- Multiple small commits are allowed on the PR - They will be squashed into one commit before merging.
