# Git Workflow and Branching
## Branch Naming Conventions
- **Features**: `feature/description-of-feature` (e.g., `feature/weather-forecast-improvements`)
- **Bug fixes**: `fix/description-of-bug` (e.g., `fix/nhl-manager-improvements`)
- **Hotfixes**: `hotfix/critical-issue-description`
- **Refactoring**: `refactor/description-of-refactor`
## Commit Message Format
```
type(scope): description
[optional body]
[optional footer]
```
**Types**: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, test, chore
**Examples**:
- `feat(nhl): Add enhanced logging for data visibility`
- `fix(display): Resolve rendering performance issue`
- `docs(api): Update ESPN API integration guide`
## Pull Request Guidelines
- **Self-review**: Review your own PR before requesting review
- **Testing**: Test thoroughly on Raspberry Pi hardware
- **Documentation**: Update relevant documentation if needed
- **Clean history**: Squash commits if necessary for clean history
## Code Review Checklist
- **Code Quality**: Proper error handling, logging, type hints
- **Architecture**: Follows project patterns, doesn't break existing functionality
- **Performance**: No negative impact on display performance
- **Testing**: Works on Raspberry Pi hardware
- **Documentation**: Comments added for complex logic
## Merge Strategies
- **Squash and Merge**: Preferred for feature branches and bug fixes
- **Merge Commit**: For complex features with multiple logical commits
- **Rebase and Merge**: For simple, single-commit changes
## Best Practices
- **Keep branches small and focused**
- **Commit frequently with meaningful messages**
- **Update branch regularly with main**
- **Test changes incrementally**
- **Delete feature branches after merge**
