Development Notes

Git Branching Model

Quark-engine source code is available in our official Git repository.

We have 6 branches.

  • master:

    • This is the stable and releasing branch.
  • dev:

    • This is where we commit our beta version.
    • When all the features are fully tested, it will be merged to master branch.
  • feature:

    • This is where we develop new features for the project.
    • Once it’s done, it will be merged to dev branch.
  • testing:

    • This is where we write tests for the codebase and new feature.
    • When it’s done, it will be merged to dev branch.
  • hotfix:

    • This branch is used to fix bugs.
    • Will be merged to dev and master
  • doc:

    • This is where we update our documentation.
    • Just like hotfix branch, will be merged to dev and master.

Release Versioning

Our versioning logic is quite simple. We use the year and month of the release as a version number. v19.10 means we release this version in Oct. 2019.
