Incident Response Branching

Objective

Use branches to separate investigation notes from stable documentation.

Scenario

A mock phishing alert needs triage. Create an incident branch and document a timeline, indicators, actions, and open questions.

Deliverables

  • Branch named incident/phishing-triage.
  • incidents/phishing-triage.md.
  • Pull request summary explaining what changed and what still needs review.

Success Criteria

  • The branch keeps draft investigation notes separate.
  • The final merged file is sanitized and organized.
