Github Protected Branches with GitFlow

问题:

I've got a repository with my develop branch protected and I'm using the GitFlow branching model. There's two branches; develop (containing features currently being developed) and master (latest deployed production code).

My develop branch prevents commits being directly made via GitHub's Protected branches. When you locally finish a hotfix using GitFlow, it automatically merges the hotfix branch into your local master and develop branches. However, pushing changes directly on the develop branch are not permitted as this is a protected branch

How can you overcome this? At the minute everytime I am creating a hotfix I have to:

1. Manually turn off the branch protection
2. Push the develop branch
3. Turn it back on

This is not automated and therefore, not really acceptable.

回答1:

Are you the owner of the GitHub project and do you have the administrator role setup with your account (or can you grant administrator access to your account)?

In this case I would recommend you not to protect the branch for administrators. This way you can guarantee that other persons are not pushing directly to develop, but all "knowledged devs" with administrator access are able to. They should be aware of what they are doing, though.

You can edit this behaviour under https://github.com/${name}/${repo}/settings/branches/. My settings do look like this (the last checkbox is important):

Note: maybe you could also use the "Restrict who can push to this branch" option.
