Using a separate branch for every new feature and integrating changes into a central line after reviews preserves past histories, keeps updates predictable, and prevents overwriting. Overwriting with manual patches and merging everything at the end tends to cause unresolved conflicts. Merging only after final checks may delay inconvenient issues until late in development.
