+If a project is developed/maintained by more then one person, it is useful to determine a develepment strategy (branching model) to keep the history clean and readible.
+
+**Groups:**
 If the project is not tied to a single person, or if multiple people are responsible to maintain the project, it might be useful to create a <a href="https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/group/" target="_blank">GitLab Group</a>.
 This way the project itself is not tied to a specific user account and additional projects may be linked under the same group as well.
 (See the <a href="https://gitlab1.ptb.de/pythia/" target="_blank">PyThia Group</a> as an example.)
 
+In particular, it might be useful to create a Git group for your working group.
+This way you can easily grant access to every Git repository in your workgroup to everyone of your workgroup.
+You can even define different roles, to e.g. prevent specific members (e.g. students) to push to certain branches (e.g. main branch of your PhD repository).
+
+**Branching models:**
+A Git workflow or branching model is essentially fixing a way to create new branches and enforce certain criteria for different branches.
+This way everyone working with the code, either through usage or contribution, knows how to obtain a stable version of the software, checkout the latest development stages or add features in a reproducable way.
+There exist a multitude of common branching models, neither of them being better then the other.
+For examples, see either the <a href="https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/github-flow" target="_blank">GitHub flow</a> model or the <a href="https://gitlab1.ptb.de/pythia/pythia/-/blob/development/DEVELOPERS.md#git-workflow" target="_blank">branching model of PyThia</a>.
+A good overview of different git workflows can also be found <a href="https://medium.com/javarevisited/5-different-git-workflows-50f75d8783a7" target="_blank">on this website</a>.
+
+Here are some examples:
+  1. If only you are working on your repository and if you ever only add new things, you can use only one branch (main) to build your code.
+  2. If you want to always have working version of your code, you can work linearly on a `development` branch and merge that into the `main` branch only if everything works.
+  3. If you work on different features simultaneously or want to test things out, you can create `feature-branches`, code on them and merge them into the `development` branch once everything works in them.
+
+**Tips:**
+  1. You can "squash" commit messages of feature branches, if you are not interested in keeping every "Bugfix" commit message in your history.
+  2. When working with (a lot of) different branches, make sure you can easily see which branch you are on.
+     For example your can change the layout of your bash command line to show the current branch:

+###### Git Commit Messages

 To keep the Git history clean and understandable, it is best practice to follow a consistent commit style guide, as e.g. the one discussed in <a href="http://who-t.blogspot.com/2009/12/on-commit-messages.html" target="_blank">this blog post</a>.

+###### . gitignore
 
 To keep only the relevant information in your repository, you should specify which files should not be tracked by `Git`.
 To do so, simply add a `.gitignore` file to your repository root.
