Hi eflers :)

So after thinking about issue management and planning milestones I
thought
more about our source control. We currently have various different models
used but the bottom line is that it all hits master all the time which
can
lead to less stability than ideal and also makes stabilisation windows
critical to enforce.

As a suggestion I think we should consider agreeing on a singlet
branching
model and I'd recommend GitFlow (described quite well here
https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/comparing-workflows#gitflow-workflow).

As well as being well organised there is a solid gitflow plugin that
helps
to manage branches and workflows.

I read the tutorial now. It is the first time I ever encountered this
workflow. Do you know any bigger FOSS projects that use this? The ones
I'm familiar with do not (not even EDI, which is unstable on master from
time to time. ;))

Qt uses this workflow or atleast was last time I was paying attention to
there development. I'm also in the group thinking this development model
is better then our current one (but not enough to passionately argue for it)

Hmm, my understanding was that Qt had a master branch which was only getting commits coming through a CI system after review and testing passed. Having all actual development work in feature branches without any shared develop branch. But I got that impression many years back from a presentation Thiago did.

You surely do know more about the Qt devel workflow than I do. I will try to have a look what they do over the next days. to understand better how it fits with a active FOSS project. Thanks for the tip.

Stefan Schmidt
