Functional programming and idea-oriented Git branching strategy
显示 更早的评论
I analyze a set of financial statement data. The end output of this project should be a short list of stocks for investment, not a software release.
This project has two basic characteristics: the data set doesn't change often, and I want to try many different ways to mine it. That renders functional programming the most suitable programming paradigm. (side note: to my experience, oop fits the demand of routine processing changing, hierachical data.)
So far, I have relied on primitive file-copies for version control. It's getting out of hand, so I decide to give Git a try. There have no serious technical problems, and Matlab provides excellent git-project integration and interface.
The question I couldn't find good answer for is a suitable git branching strategy. Though Gitflow model is quite close to what I need, it's still not good enough. See I have two main branches. One is for feature development, which Gitflow has. It would cover the features I code for the project. For example, I have coded a parallel verion of cellfun, which allows me to easily map different fuctions over the fixed data set (functional programming).
Now for the idea part. I have many ideas I want to explore Should I add an extra branch for 'ideas' to the Gitflow model? Though I don't have to produce software release, it seems nice to keep the release branch for tracking project progresses.
I am a newbie for Git. Any feedbacks and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Looks like you are on right track as you have started using a software for version control, but “Gitflow” can be a little complex for a project like yours where you don’t have a large team or regular releases.
I recommend a slightly simpler branching strategy that includes the following branches:
- Base Branch: This branch is always in the working and ready to use state, consider this as your baseline of your project.
- Develop Branch: This branch is for continuous development, works as integration branch for features which are tested and are ready to merge with the base branch.
- Feature Branch: You can create different branches for all features that you want to create in your project. This branched can be later merged to develop branch once feature is implemented.
- Test Branch: This branch can be used to test and experiment with any new ideas that you may have.

Hope this helps!
