Doc site branches
Before starting the authoring work, you must understand the different branches to work on. You'll use your branch to work on content for a certain issue or feature, but you'll submit your Pull Request against one of the branches listed below:
-
main
- protected branchDocs for https://docs.beyondidentity.com/. This branch contains the most recent stable release content.
-
docs-staging
- protected branchDocs for a forward-version that includes features not yet included in the Beyond Identity stable version. When Secure Customer has a release, its
docs-staging
branch will be merged intomain
. Its content is published on https://customer-docs-git-docs-staging-beyondidentity.vercel.app/ for early validation purpose. -
Branches starting with
release-
contain archived release documentation for historical tracking, such asrelease-xx
. -

You can have your own personal branch to work on content for a certain issue or feature. However, be sure to check and remove unused personal branches periodically for easy maintenance. Usually when your branch is merged, you can safely delete it.
