# 4. When ready, make a pull request to the develop branch of the trunk repo.
(commcare-hq) Joe:commcare-hq joeflack4$ git home
# Doing ‘git home’ opens git in the browser.
# 5. The pull request is reviewed, some code review / change requests may be provided, and ultimately once the review is passed, the merge is accepted into develop.
# 6. If no testing is needed, skip to step 9. If testing is needed, continue with this step: When ready to deploy changes for testing, the staging branch merges changes from the develop branch.
# 7. Staging branch is pushed to staging instance.
# 8. Testing is done on the staging instance.
# 9. When testing on staging is complete, develop is merged into the master or production branch.
# 10. Master or production branch is pushed to the production instance.
# 11. Testing is done on the production instance.
# 12. When testing on production is complete, the workflow is finished. Your change has been implemented!
