Branch git flow, start, which branch?

So i created a git flow with the command "git flow init".

I'm on develop.

If i do "git flow start feature MY_FEATURE", it's duplicate develop for a feature.

"git flow start feature MY_FEATURE-2" duplicate develop or the branch current?

Thanks you.

Solution

  • "feature start" will always automatically create a feature-branch from the develop-branch called feature/. "feature finish" will merge the feature-branch back into the develop-branch and delete the feature-branch afterwards.

    That's the way this convention works
