Let's talk about 10 good practice tips when using Git.  

Podcast Notes:  

PHP News: Swoole is a PHP extension that has been forked due to on going security concerns. The current version of Swoole downloads a compressed file from the business Swoole site which is NOT GOOD!  This file is a gzip file which is downloaded to your application.  

Apparently many attempts were made to raise this concern with the current maintainer of Swoole but nothing happened.  After these concerns were un-heard the PHP community decided to fork Swoole and remove the ability to run remote code from the Swoole business site. 

The forked alternative is called Open Swoole.

10 Git Branch good practices  


Run code audits before merging into a work flow branch to prevent pipeline blockages 
Put config into a separate branch to the feature 
Use a GUI to inspect right, left, middle merges 
Communicate and talk through conflicts with other developers 
Don’t squash commits.  History is good 
Regularly merge the main branch into the feature branch 
Always get a team mate to review your code.  Even if its the smallest code change 
Keep to a good branch naming convention 
Separate code maintenance, features and fixes into their own branches - Be aware of what other features use your code 
Use messaging platforms like Slack or Discord to inform your team that something has been merged. Also use this to tell your team if the code audits have failed 
Fix any failed code audits before doing anything else.
