Use nf-core git branches |
Use `master`, `dev` and `TEMPLATE`. |
|
The latest stable release should be on the main master branch.
No additional changes should be pushed to master after each release.
The main development code should be kept in a branch called dev.
The nf-core dev branch should be set as the default branch up until the first release.
For minor bugfixes a patch branch may be used and merged directly into master, leaving dev for continued development work.
The TEMPLATE branch should only contain vanilla nf-core template code.
It is used for automated synchronisation of template updates.
