Gathering commits on a branch separate from the main line and validating with automated checks establishes a controlled process for changes. This protects previously committed updates, while ensuring that the new work functions properly before merging. Methods that ignore concurrent edits can overwrite recent changes, and bypassing a dedicated branch leads to disorganized updates. Removing an entire branch to incorporate partial features can fragment the history and complicate future changes.
