The current state of my app is ready for production, so I would
like to take a snapshot of it as is, then implement it. I would
like to leave this snapshot alone, and further develop in other
aspects of the program now. Am I correct with this method?:
- commit my current source and branch as RELEASE
- download RELEASE onto production server and put into use
- further work will continue normally, and the RELEASE branch
will not be affected
- when I am ready for the new features, I can re-branch to a
new RELEASE, redownload onto production and repeat
You generally want to use a special name for the release branch,
such as RELEASE_1. When you later want to make a new release,
you name that branch RELEASE_2. You may still want to work off
the RELEASE_1 branch even though RELEASE_2 has been made.
