Hello All! Been a long while since I was active in the Roller community. Since my time with Roller, I have used Git heavily. I do believe it is the right solution to managing a code base. If you use Source Tree, a Git client provided by Atlassian, you will see the Git Flow button that allows you to manage releases, feature branches, and hot fixes. This process was first outlined by this, http://datasift.github.io/gitflow/ It was intuitive and easy to use, source tree just went a step further. I use this functionality daily to manage all my versioned projects, with the GUI interface it makes it hard for noobs to make mistakes (Source Tree really is one of the best Git clients).
If you choose not to use Git Flow, that is fine, but using Git is the right direction. Theres my two cents. Happy New Year! Thanks!
