Git is the ultimate tool for samll groups or for large groups.
There are several ways to work with git but before that you need to know your way around and to understand what is GIT.
Im recommending you to first all to watch this GIT into - Introduction to Git with Scott Chacon of GitHub
Once you feel you know your way around start to think about the desired workflow
Git flow is one of the most popular git workflow out there. It has a very solid structure + scripting that does all the logic for you, it supports what you asked to have development branch along with hotfix.
It handle the creation, merging, deletion and more with build in scripts.
Now my project development is done by 3 developers simultaneously.
How to do i achieve this?
- Every member of your project should clone the repository via git clone
- Give then permission(s) to write (push) to the repository
- From this point each one is working on his own copy and updating the remote repository.
Suppose if i am creating a TAG after every new release.
Now if i want to give a hot fix for 4 version before my main release how do i do this?
Git Flow does it all for you. It create branched, merge, tag and more.
Simply start using it.
