Use the general git templates for NCI-GDC project. Follow the instruction here to setup for global config or for this particular repo. It contains git hooks to do security scanning for each commit, as well as other type checkings to insure the consistency of coding format.

All development should happen on a branch not on master. Branches should formatted as type/GDC-##-couple-words or type/very-short-description.
This branch structure is similar to git flow but customized for our use cases. Also we are not using git flow directly because it has an inflexible release process.
❯ git checkout -b feat/GDC-11-my-feature

Commit messages follow a combination of guidelines set by Angular and Tim Pope.
Examples of valid commits:
type(scope): one line description (50 char or less)
type(scope): one line description (50 char or less)
Longer description (70 or less)
- list of changes
- one more thing
type(scope): one line description (50 char or less)
Longer description (70 or less)
- list of changes
- one more thing
Closes ##, ##
Closes ##
This format is automatically checked by a pre commit git hook.

All branches should be pushed to Github for code review.
Any branches containing significant work need to be reviewed and signed-off before they can be considered complete.
References
❯ git rebase -i master
Branches can only be merged after the following is completed:
- Rebased
- Signed Off
- Tested by CI
❯ git tag -s 1.2.3
References
Tags should be signed.
❯ brew install gpg
❯ gpg --gen-key
❯ gpg --list-secret-keys | grep "^sec"
[gpg-key-id]
❯ git config user.signingkey [gpg-key-id]
❯ gpg -a --export [gpg-key-id] | git hash-object -w --stdin
[object SHA]
❯ git tag -a [object SHA] maintainer-pgp-pub

No development should happen on the master branch and tests should never be broken.
Version number are based on the current stage of development, in the form:
0.{Phase}.{Month}-spr{Sprint}
For example the version 0.1.8-spr3 represents Phase 1, Monthly deadline 8, Sprint 3
