 # Introduction to GitLab Flow **(FREE)**

 Git allows a wide variety of branching strategies and workflows.
 Because of this, many organizations end up with workflows that are too complicated, not clearly defined, or not integrated with issue tracking systems.
 Therefore, we propose GitLab flow as a clearly defined set of best practices.

 After getting used to these three steps, the next challenge is the branching model.

-
 Because many organizations new to Git have no conventions for how to work with it, their repositories can quickly become messy.
 The biggest problem is that many long-running branches emerge that all contain part of the changes.
 People have a hard time figuring out which branch has the latest code, or which branch to deploy to production.

 GitLab flow is a way to make the relation between the code and the issue tracker more transparent.

 Link to issues by mentioning them in commit messages or the description of a merge request, for example, "Fixes #16" or "Duck typing is preferred. See #12."
 GitLab then creates links to the mentioned issues and creates comments in the issues linking back to the merge request.

 ## Reducing merge commits in feature branches

 Having lots of merge commits can make your repository history messy.
 Therefore, you should try to avoid merge commits in feature branches.
 Often, people avoid merge commits by just using rebase to reorder their commits after the commits on the `main` branch.

 In old workflows, the continuous integration (CI) server commonly ran tests on the `main` branch only.
 Developers had to ensure their code did not break the `main` branch.
 When using GitLab flow, developers create their branches from this `main` branch, so it is essential that it never breaks.

 ## Working with feature branches

 When creating a feature branch, always branch from an up-to-date `main`.
 If you know before you start that your work depends on another branch, you can also branch from there.
 If you need to merge in another branch after starting, explain the reason in the merge commit.
