Remote Collaboration

This guide will help you and your team effectively collaborate on a single project hosted in a GitHub repository. Learn how to leverage GitHub's project management features to organize tasks and ensure code quality.

Contributor Guidelines

Establishing Collaboration Standards

Define contributor guidelines that outline how team members can contribute their work to the project. This ensures a standardized and cohesive approach to collaboration.

Code of Conduct

Encouraging Positive Communication

Draft a code of conduct for your project, specifying communication norms and outlining productive behavior. This promotes a healthy and inclusive collaborative environment.

Repository Contributors

Adding Collaborators

Add group members as collaborators in your repository to enable seamless collaboration and access control.

Issue Templates

Structuring Project Issues

Utilize issue templates to ensure that all raised issues are complete and directly relevant to the project. This enhances the clarity and efficiency of issue tracking.

Code Review

Ensuring Code Quality

  • PR Templates: Utilize PR templates to guide contributors in providing essential information and context for their pull requests.

  • CI Checks: Leverage CI checks to automatically assess the quality of code changes before merging them into the main branch.

GitHub Project Management

Organizing Tasks and Tracking Progress

  • Issue Definition: Use issues to define tasks in a group project. Each issue should have a descriptive title, complete description, and relevant labels for easy categorization.

  • Project Board: Organize project tasks effectively using a Project Board, providing a visual overview of the project's progress.

  • Claiming Issues: Enable team members to claim issues and track their progress on the project board.

  • Linking PRs to Issues: Associate pull requests with specific issues to maintain traceability and context.

  • Assigning Reviewers: Assign individuals to review pull requests, ensuring a thorough examination of code changes.

  • Code Review Features: Utilize GitHub's built-in code review features to engage in discussions about code changes with reviewers.

Fixing Merge Conflicts

Resolving Code Conflicts

In the event of merge conflicts, follow these steps:

  • Select which changes to keep or decide how to combine conflicting changes.
  • If a conflict occurs in a GitHub PR, pull both branches and resolve the conflict locally.
