Project: ship a change

A professional Git workflow is a loop: pick an issue, branch, commit in small steps, open a pull request, respond to review, merge and release.

1. 01
   Sync

   Update main and branch from origin/main with a descriptive name.

2. 02
   Build

   Commit in small, reviewable units with clear messages.

3. 03
   Push

   Publish the branch and open a pull request that links the issue.

4. 04
   Review

   Address feedback with new commits and keep CI green.

5. 05
   Merge

   Squash or merge according to team policy, then delete the branch.

6. 06
   Release

   Tag the merge commit and publish release notes.

git switch main
git pull
git switch -c fix/empty-cart
# edit, then commit in small steps
git add src/cart.js
git commit -m "fix: show empty state when cart has no items"
git push -u origin fix/empty-cart
gh pr create --fill --base main
gh pr checks --watch
# after approval and green checks
git switch main
git pull
git merge --squash fix/empty-cart
git commit -m "fix: show empty state when cart has no items (#42)"
git push origin main
git tag -a v1.3.1 -m "Release 1.3.1"
git push origin v1.3.1
git branch -d fix/empty-cart
