Before I push I make sure that I have not broken anything. If it's still work in progress I hide it behind a feature flag. I push after most commits. Only using one branch, always ready to deploy. There are many work flows and this is just one, that I use for the current project. I however find it very simple, it's just commit and push. No fancy stuff.
