The convention when contributing to projects on version control platforms is that there is the main branch containing the functional codebase. Then, there are other branches in which several developers can work on copies of the main to either add a new feature, fix a bug, and so on. If there is any error, it can easily be traced and fixed before integrating the changes into the main branch.
