The version control merging process involves four key practices: using Pull Requests or Merge Requests to formalize code reviews with clear descriptions and issue references; triggering automated builds and tests for every branch; choosing between linear commit history (fast-forward merges) or consolidated commits (squash merges) consistently; and addressing merge conflicts immediately to prevent complexity caused by long-running branches.
