I have a friend that says "I'm not doing branches". He actually does branches, but they never live longer than say 2 hours. Maybe that's a confusing wording, but for people used to weeks or months-long feature branches, short-lived can still be unclear. The clearest helper "rule" for a team I came up with, was "at the end of the day, there is no branch in a repository except main". Takes time to get there, but simplifies a lot.
