Git tips & tricks

This post contains links I've found helpful when working with Git version control.

• Branching standards & conventions by @digitaljhelms. Advocates for a stable and master being the only two persistent branches. feature/s and bug/s branch from & get merged back to master. hotfix/s branch from stable and get merged back into stable and master.
• How to reference composite GitHub actions from within the same repo by @jeffeb3. This allows you template-ize actions run within a single repo if the action doesn't need to be available outside of it.
• A million ways to get the local npm package version from within github actions. If you need to get a remote version from a package registry, npm view [package] [attribute] does the trick.
