Git Workflow with Branches

For any particular task that you will work on, create a new issue and assign it to yourself. Then create a new branch off the main branch giving it a name, for example feature/creep, with:

$ git checkout main 
$ git checkout -b feature/creep

Complete the task, perhaps by writing some code! Once it is completed and tested and ready to merge it back into the main branch, commit and push your work:

$ git commit . -m "Describe your commit briefly." 
$ git push --set-upstream origin feature/creep

Then using the github GUI navigate to your branch and select to create a new pull request. Assign a reviewer and connect your pull request to the issue you're working on.

Once your pull request has been approved merge your branch into the main branch and delete your branch.
