Hi there, we are a small tram of social researchers working on writing a collective report together. The report has several chapters. Our plan is to use git to store changes and easily traceback to different versions as well as allowing everyone to experiment with new ideas.

I am trying to decide a branching strategy, and so far I guess something like feature branching could do. We could have a branch for each chapter…? And maybe, when a chapter is kind ready, we could merge into main…?

We will have members working potentially on different parts of the report in different moments.

Advice is needed. Thank you!

    To be honest, in the beginning, I started with a branch for my own version of some chapters. We thought it was ok and merged into main. Maybe if we are going to use branches at all, having a branch for each author could make sense. We need to discuss this
