Adding Components to a Branch

Overview

When a branch is first created, its Components tab contains metadata inherited from the Main Branch or from the source branch used during creation. You can add more metadata at any time using the Add Components button.

Best Practices

  • Always add components from the correct Salesforce org to avoid mismatches.

  • Review Activities for conflicts before proceeding with pull requests or merges.

  • Keep commit messages meaningful so you can track why specific components were added.
