Вивчайте Create and Switch Branches | Getting Started with Open Source

When contributing to open source projects, using branches is essential for keeping your work organized and minimizing issues with other contributors. Branching allows you to develop new features or fix bugs in isolation, ensuring that your changes do not interfere with the main codebase or with work being done by others. This approach is especially important in open source, where many people may be working on the same project at the same time. By creating a separate branch for each new feature or bugfix, you can develop and test your changes independently before merging them back into the main branch.

# Create a new branch named "feature-login"
git branch feature-login

# Switch to the new branch using checkout
git checkout feature-login

# Alternatively, create and switch in one command using switch
git switch -c feature-login

# List all branches to verify
git branch

# Switch back to the main branch
git switch main

When naming branches in open source projects, follow these best practices:

Use descriptive names that clearly indicate the purpose of the branch;
Separate words with hyphens, not spaces or underscores;
Prefix branch names with the type of work, such as feature/, bugfix/, or docs/;
Avoid using generic names like test or update;
Keep branch names concise but meaningful. Adhering to clear naming conventions makes it easier for other contributors to understand your changes and collaborate effectively.
