+- **feature branches** = Feature branches (or sometimes called topic branches) are used to develop new features for the upcoming or a distant future release. Feature branches usually start from the latest commit of the develop branch and are eventually merged back into develop. When starting development of a feature, the target release in which this feature will be incorporated may well be unknown at that point. The essence of a feature branch is that it exists as long as the feature is in development, but will eventually be merged back into develop (to definitely add the new feature to the upcoming release) or discarded (in case of a disappointing experiment).<br>The feature branches are usually associated with an open issue (used for ideas, proposal, discussion, mockups, and to post the status of the implementation) and are named "issue-XXX", where XXX is the associated issue.
