Deploy Salesforce Changes

Golden rule

{{defaultBranch}} mirrors production. Never commit or merge into it directly. All changes go through feature branches and pull requests.

Deployment workflow

1. Create a feature branch off {{defaultBranch}}.
2. Commit your changes under src/ with a clear message.
3. Open a pull request targeting {{defaultBranch}}.
4. Build Package (automatic on PR) — syncs production into {{defaultBranch}}, merges into the PR branch, builds an incremental package via sfdx-git-delta.
5. Check Package (manual) — check-only deploy with tests; results appear on the PR. Review test results before proceeding.
6. Quick Deploy (manual) — quick deploys to production, auto-merges to {{defaultBranch}}, deletes the feature branch.

PR description flags

Flag	Effect
!skipSync	Skip production sync during Build Package
!tests=Foo,Bar	Run only listed test classes during Check Package
