* Update CDK version policy, Node 24 runtime, and GitHub Actions CI/CD - Pin blessed aws-cdk-lib version (2.253.1) with upgrade procedure - Update Lambda runtime default from Node 22 to Node 24 - Rewrite CI/CD page to reflect GitHub Actions reusable workflows (was still referencing CodePipeline/CodeBuild) * Add pre-push hook for npm ci validation Catches lock file drift locally before it breaks CI. Includes install instructions in git-workflow.md. * Add repo provisioning script Automates the new-repo checklist: GitHub repo creation, OIDC deploy role, repo secret, security features, CI/CD workflow stubs, and pre-push hook installation. Supports both SAM and CDK stack types. * Add shared VpnEc2Instance CDK construct Reference construct for the VPN-accessible EC2 pattern used by file-share and forgejo. Includes VPC/subnet lookup, SG, IAM role, encrypted EBS, and DLM snapshots. Copy into lib/constructs/. * Add post-deploy health check template Template script for project-specific health checks. Copy to scripts/health-check.sh — CD workflows run it automatically.

# Git Workflow
|
|
|
|
## Branching
|
|
|
|
- Never commit directly to `main`
|
|
- Delete branches after merge
|
|
- Use the appropriate branch prefix for the type of work:
|
|
|
|
| Prefix | Use when |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `feature/<description>` | Adding new functionality or enhancing existing features |
|
|
| `bug/<description>` | Fixing a non-urgent defect found during development or testing |
|
|
| `hotfix/<description>` | Fixing a production issue that needs immediate attention |
|
|
|
|
**bug vs hotfix:** Use `bug/` for defects caught before they affect production (failing tests, broken dev flows, issues found in review). Use `hotfix/` only when production is impacted and the fix needs to bypass normal review cadence.
|
|
|
|
## Commits
|
|
|
|
- Commit each logical change individually with a descriptive message
|
|
- See [commit-messages.md](commit-messages.md) for formatting rules
|
|
- Keep the working tree clean: commit or stash before switching context
|
|
|
|
## Deploy-Then-Merge
|
|
|
|
The standard flow for changes that deploy to AWS:
|
|
|
|
1. Create a feature branch (`feature/add-receipt-parser`)
|
|
2. Develop and commit locally
|
|
3. Open a PR via `gh pr create`
|
|
4. Merge the feature branch into `main` locally
|
|
5. Deploy to the target environment (`sam deploy`, etc.)
|
|
6. Verify in production
|
|
7. Merge the PR on GitHub
|
|
|
|
This ensures production works before the PR closes. If the deploy fails, the PR stays open and `main` on GitHub is still clean.
|
|
|
|
## Push Discipline
|
|
|
|
- Push regularly; don't accumulate unpushed commits
|
|
- Never force push `main`
|
|
- Never amend or rewrite commits already pushed to `main`
|
|
- If you need to add context to a past change, use PR descriptions or issue comments
|
|
|
|
## Versioning
|
|
|
|
Use [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) (SemVer) as the standard: `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`.
|
|
|
|
| Increment | When |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `MAJOR` | Breaking changes to the public API or contract (removed endpoints, changed request/response shapes, incompatible config changes) |
|
|
| `MINOR` | New functionality that is backwards-compatible (new endpoints, new optional fields, new features) |
|
|
| `PATCH` | Backwards-compatible bug fixes, dependency updates, documentation corrections |
|
|
|
|
### When to version
|
|
|
|
Not every project needs versioning. Apply SemVer when the project has consumers that depend on its interface:
|
|
|
|
| Version | Don't version |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| Published packages (npm, PyPI) | Internal SAM stacks with no external consumers |
|
|
| Public APIs with external consumers | One-off scripts and migration tools |
|
|
| Shared libraries used across repos | Internal tools used only by the team that builds them |
|
|
| CLIs distributed to users | |
|
|
|
|
### How to tag
|
|
|
|
Create annotated tags on `main` after the PR is merged:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git tag -a v1.2.0 -m "v1.2.0"
|
|
git push origin v1.2.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Start at `v0.1.0` for new projects. Move to `v1.0.0` when the interface is stable and has external consumers.
|
|
|
|
## Git Hooks
|
|
|
|
Recommended hooks live in [`hooks/`](hooks/) — copy them into `.git/hooks/` when setting up a project.
|
|
|
|
| Hook | Purpose |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| `pre-push` | Runs `npm ci` to catch lock file drift before it breaks CI |
|
|
|
|
Install for a Node.js project:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp ~/Documents/repositories/engineering-handbook/hooks/pre-push .git/hooks/pre-push
|
|
chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Cleaning Up
|
|
|
|
After a PR is merged:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git checkout main
|
|
git pull
|
|
git branch -d feature/add-receipt-parser
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Don't let stale local branches or untracked project directories accumulate.
