For some of my earlier work projects, I have a dev, test, and prod branch set up and do the full dev > test > prod deployment cycle - although now that the main rollout is done and it's mostly small maintenance updates I don't have users do a proper testing of the test branch any more.

For newer projects I've been using a single branch and only branching if I want to do a major overhaul update - for example I overhauled the CSS to use Tailwind of one and I did that all in a side branch so that I could make sure they were okay with the minor changes before committing to prod 😅
