Could you explain the Gitflow workflow?

Gitflow workflow employs two parallel long-running branches to record the history of the project, master and develop:

• Master – is always ready to be released on LIVE, with everything fully tested and approved (production-ready).
• Hotfix – Maintenance or “hotfix” branches are used to quickly patch production releases. Hotfix branches are a lot like release branches and feature branches except they’re based on master instead of develop.

• Develop – is the branch to which all feature branches are merged and where all tests are performed. Only when everything’s been thoroughly checked and fixed it can be merged to the master.
• Feature – Each new feature should reside in its own branch, which can be pushed to the develop branch as their parent one.
