Version Control Guide

Branching

  • Branch off of dev for all feature work and bug fixes, creating a "feature branch". Prefix the feature branch name with your name. The branch name should be in kebab case and it should be short and descriptive. E.g. sherry/readme-update
  • To integrate changes on dev into your feature branch, use rebase instead of merge
# currently working on feature branch, there are new commits on dev
git pull origin dev --rebase

# if there are conflicts, resolve them and then:
git add .
git rebase --continue

# force push to remote feature branch
git push -f

Commits

  • Commits should be atomic (guideline: the commit is self-contained; a reviewer could make sense of it even if they viewed the commit diff in isolation)
  • Trivial commits (e.g. fixing a typo in the previous commit, formatting changes) should be squashed or fixup'd into the last non-trivial commit
# last commit contained a typo, fixed now
git add .
git commit -m "Fix typo"

# fixup into previous commit through interactive rebase
# x in HEAD~x refers to the last x commits you want to view
git rebase -i HEAD~2
# text editor opens, follow instructions in there to fixup

# force push to remote feature branch
git push -f
  • Commit messages and PR names are descriptive and written in imperative tense1. The first word should be capitalized. E.g. "Create user REST endpoints", not "Created user REST endpoints"
  • PRs can contain multiple commits, they do not need to be squashed together before merging as long as each commit is atomic. Our repo is configured to only allow squash commits to main so the entire PR will appear as 1 commit on main, but the individual commits are preserved when viewing the PR.
