Tip 1: Start thinking about tasks as Git branches

Tip 2: Multiple branches are individually testable, so take advantage
 A long running feature branch that is not merged to the master branch may hurt
our ability to be agile and iterate.
 If we have a long running feature branch remember that we effectively have two
divergent versions of our code base, which will result is more bug fixes and
conflicts. But the best solution is to have short-lived feature branches.
 This can be achieved through decomposing user stories into smaller tasks, careful
sprint planning, and merging code early to ship as dark features.

Tip 3: Git provides transparency and quality to agile development
 Adopting a regular release cadence is key to agile development.
 In order to make Git work for our agile workflow, we need to make sure that our
master is always green.
 This means that if a feature isn’t ready then wait for the next release.
 If we practice shorter release cycles this shouldn’t and won’t be a big deal.
