How Effective Teams Use Git
summary
Practical Git habits and exact settings: enable a Git-aware prompt like starship, use diff‑so‑fancy via git config core.pager, set core.whitespace and use rebase -Xwhite-space=fix to auto-fix trailing spaces, use merge.conflictStyle=d3 for three‑way conflicts, set core.excludesfile for global ignores and push.followTags=true. Commit strategy is A C I D (autonomous via git add -p, compatible via stash --keep-index or git rebase --exec to run builds, incremental via interactive rebase, documented 50‑char subject enforced by commit-msg hook). Branch rules: private topic branches, public long‑running with merge commits, map branches to environments.
