Warning

Do not commit the same change to multiple branches. Pick the "earliest" relevant branch and commit there. For example, if you commit to hotfix-3.0.x, do not also commit to develop. Your commit will flow to develop at the next merge. This makes it easier to track where a change came from.

Under limited circumstances, it may be necessary to cherry pick a commit or otherwise violate this rule. Please discuss before doing so.

Note

In general, do not merge hotfix-*, develop, or master. That will happen at release time. You can merge a temporary feature-* branch into hotfix-* or develop.
