Git for collaboration

“

- When working on a team, your workflow will need to be based on a collaborative workflow. We discussed how using branches can be beneficial, even when working independently, but when working with a team, it will be crucial. Branches allow work to happen in parallel. One person can be working on a new feature while another person can focus on bug fixes, or maybe, each person uses their own branch, so they can have a separate work area. There are ungit concepts such as forking and using pull requests that are important to know about when working with others. This is especially useful for working on open source projects where the repos may be public, but the collaborators don't have the admin rights to push and pull directly into or from the repository. To learn more, check out opensource.guide or the working with teams course in the LinkedIn learning library.
