Branches, commits, pull requests, merging, conflicts — these are familiar terms we hear across the wider software engineering world, and within high-performing Salesforce teams. But tying them all together into a strategy can be tricky. With long-lived sandboxes and varied metadata types, Salesforce’s unique development model can make it even harder to adopt a branching strategy that works for everyone, adding to the initial learning curve.
For many Salesforce admins, the idea of using Git, source control, or version control can feel like something reserved for developers, buried in command-line tools and technical workflows. But that perception is shifting. As Salesforce teams modernize their DevOps processes, Git has become essential. And it’s not just for developers anymore.
Salesforce development is changing — and fast. With Agentforce 3 ushering in a new generation of AI-powered tooling and smarter DevOps workflows, there’s one term you’re going to hear a lot more about in 2025: MCP. Short for Model Context Protocol, MCP is the behind-the-scenes standard powering many of the new capabilities in Agentforce. In this blog post, guest author Dave Rant (Development Team Lead at Gearset) deep dives into what MCP is — and why it matters for Salesforce professionals.
