a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

RSpec::Matchers.define :have_constant do |constant|
match do |owner|
([Class, Module].include?(owner.class) ? owner : owner.class).const_defined?(constant)
end

"expected #{klass} to have constant #{constant}"
