Branching strategy

[rozyczko]

Master branch is stable and used for releases (on tags)

Develop branch is current and used for merging feature branches and staging for the release.
Develop should only ever depend on master (released) versions of modules.

Feature branches are personal branches used for development.
Feature branches may depend on any branch of modules, but must depend on master versions before merging to develop.

Hotfix branches are small fixes going directly off/to main with release fixes. Those need to also be merged to develop immediately.

Squash merging to the Develop branch can be enforced on a by-repo basis using the GitHub ruleset "Require Linear History", more info here: https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/configuring-branches-and-merges-in-your-repository/managing-rulesets/available-rules-for-rulesets
