# 🌿 Branching Strategy
Cherry Studio implements a structured branching strategy to maintain code quality and streamline the development process.
## Main Branches
- `main`: Main development branch
- Contains the latest development code
- Direct commits are not allowed - changes must come through pull requests
- Code may contain features in development and might not be fully stable
- `release/*`: Release branches
- Created from `main` branch
- Contains stable code ready for release
- Only accepts documentation updates and bug fixes
- Thoroughly tested before production deployment
For details about the `testplan` branch used in the Test Plan, please refer to the [Test Plan](./test-plan.md).
## Contributing Branches
When contributing to Cherry Studio, please follow these guidelines:
1. **Feature Branches:**
- Create from `main` branch
- Naming format: `feature/issue-number-brief-description`
- Submit PR back to `main`
2. **Bug Fix Branches:**
- Create from `main` branch
- Naming format: `fix/issue-number-brief-description`
- Submit PR back to `main`
3. **Documentation Branches:**
- Create from `main` branch
- Naming format: `docs/brief-description`
- Submit PR back to `main`
4. **Hotfix Branches:**
- Create from `main` branch
- Naming format: `hotfix/issue-number-brief-description`
- Submit PR to both `main` and relevant `release` branches
5. **Release Branches:**
- Create from `main` branch
- Naming format: `release/version-number`
- Used for final preparation work before version release
- Only accepts bug fixes and documentation updates
- After testing and preparation, merge back to `main` and tag with version

## Pull Request Guidelines
- All PRs should be submitted to the `main` branch unless fixing a critical production issue
- Ensure your branch is up to date with the latest `main` changes before submitting
- Include relevant issue numbers in your PR description
- Make sure all tests pass and code meets our quality standards
- Add before/after screenshots if you add a new feature or modify a UI component
## Version Tag Management
- Major releases: v1.0.0, v2.0.0, etc.
- Feature releases: v1.1.0, v1.2.0, etc.
- Patch releases: v1.0.1, v1.0.2, etc.
- Hotfix releases: v1.0.1-hotfix, etc.
