How to use git stream in GitLab

Question

We use GitLab for our project, and we think this is great. We also use the git thread to manage changes in functions, development, master branches.

Can you use the merge request assembly in GitLab to manage git thread-style branches?

The value when accepting a merge request for an release branch is that it will merge the release branch into master AND to develop .. Or we should always use the git thread on our local machines to accept merge requests.

Answer 1

As shown in issue 1628 , it’s best to use GitLab to push branches, and then rely on a specific GitLab function associated with a particular workflow , such as git -flow.

So the natural approach is to restrict these git -flow functions to local clones and push any branch you want on GitLab after the merge request is resolved.
