Source Control Management (SCM) systems like Git are essential for managing code and enabling collaboration among team members. Branching is a key feature of Git, allowing multiple developers to work on the same project without interfering with each other's progress. This article introduces three popular branching strategies: Git Flow, GitHub Flow, and Azure Flow. Each strategy has its own merits and should be chosen based on the specific needs of a team or organization. Feature flags can also be used to deploy and test code without affecting customers until the new version is officially released.
