Gitlab Workflow

When making a change my workflow is:

git status to see if we are clean
git branch to check which is likely the “main” branch
git checkout main - switch to “main” branch (assuming it’s not master)
git pull make sure I’m working with the latest
git checkout -b $name-of-thing-I-will-work-on - wish I could say naming the branch is easy
Stage a prefect commit
git commit with [Jira tag], often requires a look up in a browser because I can’t remember
git push
Follow push message: To create a merge request for $name-of-thing-I-will-work-on, visit:
Click create MR and remove weird closes [Jira tag] in description autofilled by Gitlab 🤷
Click Approve if I can, otherwise goto slack and paste URL for someone to hopefully review
Try merge if I can (after CI is complete, wait ~5mins)
Back to terminal, perhaps delete merged branch
