[Mono-dev] Git faq updated with workflows

[pablosantosluac at terra.es]

All,

I'd strongly recommend you separate every task (every entry on bugzilla)
on a separated branch.

I'm very used to it since this is the way we work internally in Plastic
(and what we do recommend to all our customers). It gives you perfect
traceability and flexibility to handle all changes.

Git is perfectly capable of handling high number of branches (as plastic
is too, something you didn't have with SVN), so I think this one is a
perfect solution.

Basically it means: you'll be using branches instead of "commits" as
"unit of change".

Hope it helps,

pablo
