----
-
-## Branching Strategy
-
-We use a Gitflow-inspired branching strategy adapted for our development workflow. This strategy provides a clear structure for feature development, bug fixes, and releases.
-
-### Branch Types
-
-#### 1. `main` Branch
-- **Purpose**: Production-ready code only
-- **Protection**: Highest level of protection
-- **Rules**:
-  - Only merge `release/*` or `hotfix/*` branches into `main`
-  - No direct commits allowed
-  - Must pass all tests and code reviews
-  - Tags are created from this branch for releases (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
-
-#### 2. `develop` Branch
-- **Purpose**: Integration branch for features
-- **Protection**: High level of protection
-- **Rules**:
-  - Merge `feature/*` and `fix/*` branches into `develop`
-  - No direct commits allowed
-  - Must pass all tests before merging
-  - Serves as the base for `release/*` branches
-
-#### 3. `feature/*` Branches
-- **Purpose**: Develop new features
-- **Naming**: `feature/feature-name` (e.g., `feature/font-catalog`, `feature/comparison-grid`)
-- **Base**: Always branch from `develop`
-- **Merge**: Merge back into `develop` via Merge Request (MR)
-- **Rules**:
-  - One feature per branch
-  - Keep branches focused and small
-  - Delete after merging
-
-#### 4. `fix/*` Branches
-- **Purpose**: Fix bugs discovered during development
-- **Naming**: `fix/issue-description` (e.g., `fix/font-loading-error`, `fix/responsive-layout`)
-- **Base**: Branch from `develop`
-- **Merge**: Merge back into `develop` via MR
-- **Rules**:
-  - One fix per branch
-  - Include tests that verify the fix
-  - Delete after merging
-
-#### 5. `hotfix/*` Branches
-- **Purpose**: Critical fixes for production issues
-- **Naming**: `hotfix/critical-fix` (e.g., `hotfix/security-patch`, `hotfix-production-crash`)
-- **Base**: Branch from `main`
-- **Merge**: Merge into both `main` and `develop`
-- **Rules**:
-  - Use only for production emergencies
-  - Must be thoroughly tested
-  - Create a release tag after merging to `main`
-
-#### 6. `release/*` Branches
-- **Purpose**: Prepare for a new release
-- **Naming**: `release/vX.Y.Z` (e.g., `release/v1.0.0`, `release/v1.1.0`)
-- **Base**: Branch from `develop`
-- **Merge**: Merge into both `main` and `develop`
-- **Rules**:
-  - Finalize release notes
-  - Update version numbers
-  - Perform final testing
-  - Create release tag after merging to `main`

-## Branch Naming Conventions
-
-### Feature Branches
-- Format: `feature/feature-name`
-- Examples:
-  - `feature/font-catalog`
-  - `feature/comparison-grid`
-  - `feature/dark-mode`
-  - `feature/google-fonts-integration`
-
-### Fix Branches
-- Format: `fix/issue-description`
-- Examples:
-  - `fix/font-loading-error`
-  - `fix/responsive-layout`
-  - `fix/state-persistence`
-  - `fix-accessibility-contrast`
-
-### Hotfix Branches
-- Format: `hotfix/critical-fix`
-- Examples:
-  - `hotfix/security-patch`
-  - `hotfix-production-crash`
-  - `hotfix-api-rate-limit`
-
-### Release Branches
-- Format: `release/vX.Y.Z`
-- Examples:
-  - `release/v1.0.0`
-  - `release/v1.1.0`
-  - `release/v2.0.0`
-
-### Naming Guidelines
-- Use lowercase letters
-- Use hyphens to separate words
-- Be descriptive but concise
-- Avoid special characters (except hyphens)
-- Keep names under 50 characters
-
----
-
-## Commit Message Conventions
-
-We follow the [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) specification. This format enables automated changelog generation and better commit history readability.
-
-### Format
-
-```
-<type>(<scope>): <subject>
-
-<body>
-
-<footer>
-```
-
-### Commit Types
-
-| Type | Description | Examples |
-|------|-------------|----------|
-| `feat` | New feature | `feat(fonts): add Google Fonts integration` |
-| `fix` | Bug fix | `fix(comparison): resolve font loading race condition` |
-| `docs` | Documentation changes | `docs(readme): update installation instructions` |
-| `style` | Code style changes (formatting, etc.) | `style(components): format with Prettier` |
-| `refactor` | Code refactoring | `refactor(stores): simplify state management` |
-| `test` | Adding or updating tests | `test(fonts): add unit tests for font mapper` |
-| `chore` | Maintenance tasks | `chore(deps): update Tailwind CSS to v4.0` |
-| `perf` | Performance improvements | `perf(catalog): implement lazy loading for fonts` |
-
-### Scope
-
-The scope provides context about which part of the codebase is affected. Common scopes for this project:
-
-- `fonts` - Font-related functionality
-- `comparison` - Font comparison features
-- `catalog` - Font catalog pages
-- `stores` - State management stores
-- `components` - UI components
-- `routes` - SvelteKit routes
-- `services` - External API services
-- `utils` - Utility functions
-- `types` - TypeScript type definitions
-- `ui` - UI-related changes (theme, layout, etc.)
-- `config` - Configuration files
-
-### Subject
-
-- Use imperative mood ("add" not "added", "fix" not "fixed")
-- Keep it short (50 characters or less)
-- Don't end with a period
-- Be specific and descriptive
-
-### Body
-
-- Use imperative mood
-- Explain **what** and **why**, not **how**
-- Wrap at 72 characters
-- Include references to issues (e.g., `Closes #123`)
-
-### Footer
-
-- Reference breaking changes with `BREAKING CHANGE:`
-- Reference issues with `Closes #123` or `Fixes #456`
-- Include co-authors if needed
-
-### Examples

-
-## Code Splitting and Merge Request Guidelines
-
-### Merge Request Size Guidelines
-
-- **Maximum MR size**: < 500 lines changed (additions + deletions)
-- **Ideal MR size**: 100-300 lines changed
-- **Files per MR**: < 10 files
-
-### When to Split a Feature into Multiple MRs
-
-Split a feature into multiple MRs when:
-
-1. **The feature is large** (> 500 lines or > 10 files)
-2. **Multiple concerns are involved** (e.g., UI + API + state management)
-3. **Independent parts can be tested separately**
-4. **The feature has logical phases** (e.g., setup → implementation → polish)
-
-### Example: Splitting a Feature
-
-**Feature**: Font Catalog with Filtering
-
-**MR 1**: `feature/font-catalog-setup`
-- Create basic catalog page structure
-- Set up routing
-- Add placeholder components
-- ~150 lines
-
-**MR 2**: `feature/font-catalog-data`
-- Implement Google Fonts API integration
-- Create font data fetching logic
-- Add font mapper utilities
-- ~200 lines
-
-**MR 3**: `feature/font-catalog-ui`
-- Build FontCard component
-- Implement grid layout
-- Add loading states
-- ~250 lines
-
-**MR 4**: `feature/font-catalog-filtering`
-- Implement filter store
-- Build FilterBar component
-- Connect filters to catalog
-- ~180 lines
-
-### Merge Request Description Template
-
-Every MR must include a comprehensive description:
-

-## Git Hooks Configuration
-
-Git hooks are automated scripts that run at specific points in the git workflow. They help maintain code quality and consistency.
-
-### Recommended Hooks
-
-#### 1. Pre-commit Hook
-**Purpose**: Run linter and formatter before committing
-
-**Tools**: ESLint, Prettier
-
-**Implementation**:
-```bash
-#!/bin/sh
-# .git/hooks/pre-commit
-
-# Run Prettier
-npm run format:check
-
-# Run ESLint
-npm run lint
-
-# Exit with error if any check fails
-if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
-  echo "❌ Pre-commit checks failed. Please fix the issues before committing."
-  exit 1
-fi
-
-echo "✅ Pre-commit checks passed."
-```
-
-**Setup**:
-```bash
-# Install husky (recommended)
-npm install --save-dev husky
-
-# Initialize husky
-npx husky install
-
-# Add pre-commit hook
-npx husky add .husky/pre-commit "npm run lint && npm run format:check"
-```
-
-#### 2. Commit-msg Hook
-**Purpose**: Validate commit message format
-
-**Tools**: commitlint
-
-**Implementation**:
-```bash
-#!/bin/sh
-# .git/hooks/commit-msg
-
-# Validate commit message with commitlint
-npx --no -- commitlint --edit $1
-```
-
-**Setup**:
-```bash
-# Install commitlint
-npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
-
-# Create commitlint config
-echo "module.exports = { extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'] };" > commitlint.config.js
-
-# Add commit-msg hook
-npx husky add .husky/commit-msg "npx --no -- commitlint --edit \$1"
-```
-
-#### 3. Pre-push Hook
-**Purpose**: Run tests before pushing
-
-**Tools**: Vitest, SvelteKit test runner
-
-**Implementation**:
-```bash
-#!/bin/sh
-# .git/hooks/pre-push
-
-# Run tests
-npm run test
-
-# Exit with error if tests fail
-if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
-  echo "❌ Tests failed. Please fix the failing tests before pushing."
-  exit 1
-fi
-
-echo "✅ All tests passed."
-```
-
-**Setup**:
-```bash
-# Add pre-push hook
-npx husky add .husky/pre-push "npm run test"
-```
-
-### Alternative: Using Husky
-
-[Husky](https://typicode.github.io/husky/) is a popular tool for managing git hooks. It's easier to maintain and works across different operating systems.
-
-**Installation**:
-```bash
-npm install --save-dev husky
-npx husky install
-npm pkg set scripts.prepare="husky install"
-```
-
-**Adding hooks**:
-```bash
-# Pre-commit hook
-npx husky add .husky/pre-commit "npm run lint && npm run format:check"
-
-# Commit-msg hook
-npx husky add .husky/commit-msg "npx --no -- commitlint --edit \$1"
-
-# Pre-push hook
-npx husky add .husky/pre-push "npm run test"
-```
-
-### Hook Scripts for This Project
-
-Once the project is set up with SvelteKit, add these scripts to `package.json`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "format": "prettier --write .",
-    "format:check": "prettier --check .",
-    "lint": "eslint .",
-    "lint:fix": "eslint . --fix",
-    "test": "vitest run",
-    "test:watch": "vitest",
-    "prepare": "husky install"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Benefits of Git Hooks
-
-1. **Consistency**: Enforce code style and formatting
-2. **Quality**: Catch bugs before they're committed
-3. **Efficiency**: Fail fast, fix early
-4. **Automation**: Reduce manual checks
-5. **Team alignment**: Ensure everyone follows the same standards
