Conventions

To ensure long-term maintainability and high-velocity collaboration, our team adheres to modern industry standards for version control:

• Commit Naming (Conventional Commits): We follow the Conventional Commits 1.0.0 specification. Messages must use the imperative mood and be prefixed with a type:

  • feat: A new feature for the user.
  • fix: A bug fix for the codebase.
  • docs: Documentation-only changes.
  • refactor: Code changes that neither fix bugs nor add features.
  • chore: Maintenance tasks (build scripts, package manager updates).
  • Example: feat: implement async API call for mentorship button

• Branching Strategy (GitHub Flow): We utilize a streamlined branching model to maintain a deployable main branch:

  • main: The "Source of Truth." Contains production-ready code.
  • dev: Integration branch for combining tested features.
  • Short-lived Feature Branches: Named using kebab-case with a descriptive prefix (e.g., feature/user-auth, bugfix/api-timeout).
  • Atomic Development: Branches are kept small and focused on a single logical task to minimize merge conflicts.

• Pull Request & Merge Policy:

  • Mandatory Peer Review: No code is merged into dev or main without at least one approval from a teammate.
  • CI/CD Readiness: Every PR must pass local Docker build checks and linting before being marked as "Ready for Review."
  • Integration Strategy: We utilize a hybrid approach based on the task:
    • Squash and Merge: For small features to keep the main history clean and linear by condensing "work-in-progress" commits into one.
    • Merge Commit: For complex, multi-person features where preserving the granular history is necessary for debugging.
