Branch – A branch is an independent line of development in a Git repository. Branches allow parallel work: for example, one branch (master or main) can hold stable code, while another branch (feature/new-strategy) contains ongoing experiments. Developers can create, merge, or delete branches as needed. In automated strategy management, branching is useful for trying new trading logic without disturbing the production EA. When a feature or fix is ready, its branch can be merged back into the main branch.
