Branch Naming

Branch naming

• Branch names must be lowercase.
• Branch names must use dashes e.g implement-awesome-functionality.
• Hotfixes should be prefixed as hotfix-<fogbugz number> e.g hotfix-1337.
• Bugs should be prefixed as bug-<fogbugz number> e.g bug-1337.
• In case a description is needed for the bugfixes and hotfixes on trello then it should be placed inside the card description.
• Branch names should match Trello card names (substitute spaces with dashes).
• Branch names must not contain special characters. They should be removed or replaced with a dash (-).

Big feature branch naming

• In case a feature (small-feature) is based on a big feature (big-feature), then the branch should be called small-feature@big-feature.
• In case there is a smaller feature that needs to be based on a small-feature@big-feature branch then this smaller feature branch should be called tiny-feature@small-feature@big-feature.
