-	  		<p>history</p>
+	  		<p>We aim not to make long and complicated rules for using Git, but we (and apache) want to have transparency, so a few rules is needed</p>
+			<h4>History</h4>
+			<p>Do not rewrite history on our branches, we want to have a liniar history without manipulation</p>
+			<h4>Branches</h4>
+			<p>We use 2 branches constantly:</p>
+			<ul><li><b>master</b> This is our development branch, commit code to this branch whenever you have finished developing and testing a feature. Every commit on this branch, must be verified and tested on the platform the committer uses, do NOT commit non working versions here.</li>
+				<li><b>stable</b> This is our release branch, whenever HEAD on <b>master</b> is tested on all platforms the content is merged to <b>stable</b>, therefore <b>stable</b> is a timeline where corinthia worked on all supported platforms. do NOT commit to <b>stable</b> without previous agrement on dev@</li></ul>
+			<p>If you make changes to any API or work on a bigger feature make an "experimentXYZ" remote branch, in order for other developers to view your code before committing it to <b>stable</b></p>
+			<p>Use a local work branch while you develop, once you have finalized and tested the feature/bug fix, merge it with --squash to <b>master</b></p>	
+			<h4>Workflows (examples)</h4>
+			<p>Please see Git FAQ</p>
