There are many Git workflows out there, I heavily suggest also reading the atlassian.com [Git Workflow][article] article as there is more detail then presented here.

The two prevailing workflows are [Gitflow][gitflow] and [feature branches][feature]. IMHO, being more of a subscriber to continuous integration, I feel that the feature branch workflow is better suited.

When using Bash in the command line, it leaves a bit to be desired when it comes to awareness of state. I would suggest following these instructions on [setting up GIT Bash autocompletion][git-auto].

Basic branching

When working with a centralized workflow the concepts are simple, master represented the official history and is always deployable. With each now scope of work, aka feature, the developer is to create a new branch. For clarity, make sure to use descriptive names like transaction-fail-message or github-oauth for your branches.

Creating a Happy Git Environment on OS X

Step 1: Install Git

brew install git bash-completion

Configure things:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"

	$token = base64_encode(openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($length, $strong));
	if($strong == TRUE)
	return strtr(substr($token, 0, $length), '+/=', '-_,'); //base64 is about 33% longer, so we need to truncate the result

	• SSH to your server to start creating a subdomain (https://library.linode.com/hosting-website#sph_configuring-name-based-virtual-hosts)

	• Go to ~/public/

	› mkdir -p sub.example.com/{public,log,backup}
	› cd sub.example.com/public/
	› nano index.html \| nano index.php

	• Write 'Hello world' or whatever, we just need a html\|php file to test with
