I have yet to see a good application of feature branching. Anytime I have seen/experienced it, it introduces lots of delays, context switching, and stress. Sometimes, lots of team dysfunctions.
X: So you are saying feature branching is bad?
Me: Yup!
X: But why? It is the most commonly accepted practice in the IT industry. Does that mean that all these people are doing it wrong?
X: Yup! Definitely.
If you'd like to know why, please come to the online Agile Alliance Tech Talk where I'll explain in long and large what is problematic about feature branching, what different approaches we can take, and how we can get there.
