After using Git-Flow for a couple of months, I have a question maybe someone could help with...
Say there are 2 feature branches checked out locally and have been pushed to the GitHub repo but not finished. One of them is the setup of a data scheme for the application and the other is working on a single screen of the application. Up until now the screen feature has not had to use the data scheme, but now that is about to change. So...
If I finish (and therefore merge) the data-scheme-feature into the develop branch, will this code (and functionality) added to the develop branch be visible in the screen-feature.
Will I need to re-pull the screen branch? Will I have to finish the screen branch and then start a new feature in order to be able to use the newly added data-scheme?
Will I need to re-pull the screen branch?
You could simply merge develop into the still-in-progress screen-feature branch. And go on in that branch, with everything available.
