 The Integration team will sometimes recommend squashing commits when things do not look natural (and may offer to do this for you), especially when there are "fix-commits" in the history happening before integration. You will not be forced to squash your changes because our policy is: *"If you want your history of commits to look like bad, it's your history."*.
 
 :::tip
+
 You should pay close attention to [Git_commits](../../policies/codingstyle/index.md#git-commits) and intend to *"Tell a perfect, cleaned up version of the history. As if the code was written perfectly first time."*.

+## Integration tooling
+
+Typically during the integration process no additional tooling is required, however the [`moodle-userscripts`](https://github.com/HuongNV13/moodle-userscripts) TamperMonkey scripts are a great way of generating the commands typically used during final code review.
+
+:::danger Considerations for your code review repository
+
+When reviewing code for the final review, it is important to do so in a separate checkout which you do not use for other development. This helps ensure that unrelated branches and changes are not pushed by mistake.
+
+- Before starting a review, ensure you have fetched the latest data from the Git remote
+- It is advisable to remove all unrelated branches to prevent inadvertent branch pushing
+

+
+### Useful configuration
+
+The following configuration can be applied in your global git configuration:
+
+```console title="~/.gitconfig"
+[alias]
+  # Display the name of the current branch.
+  current-branch = !git branch|grep ^\\*|cut -d\\  -f2
+
+  # Get a list of all other branches.
+  other-branches = !git branch|grep -v ^\\*
+
+  # Remove all branches other than the one currently checked out.
+  remove-other-branches = !git branch -D `git other-branches`
+
+  # Fetch from the Moodle Remote and then reset the current branch.
+  integration-reset = !git fetch origin && git reset --hard origin/`git current-branch`
+
+  # Diff the current branch against the remote version of this branch, fetching first.
+  integration-diff    = !git fetch origin && git show --stat=500,300 -p origin/`git current-branch`...`git current-branch`
+
+  # Diff the current branch, ignoring whitespace, against the remote version of this branch, fetching first.
+  integration-wdiff   = !git fetch origin && git show --color-words --stat=500,300 -p origin/`git current-branch`...`git current-branch`
+```
+
+The following configuration should only be applied to the git configuration used for your final reviews.
+
+```console title="[path/to/repository/].git/config"
+[alias]
+  # This is a more aggressive form of the standard integration-reset.
+  # It should *only* be applied to your final review policy.
+  # It will remove all branches other than the currently checked out branch.
+  # DO NOT use this config on a repository you care about.
+  integration-reset   = !git fetch origin && git reset --hard origin/`git current-branch` && git remove-other-branches
+```
+
+The following are useful bash/zsh aliases which you may also find useful:
+
+```console title="~/.bashrc"
+# Alias the `id` command to perform a diff on the current branch.
+alias id='git integration-diff'
+
+# Alias the `ir` command to perform a reset for the current branch only.
+alias ir='git integration-reset'
+
+# Alias the `irm` command to check out the `main` branch and the remove all other branches.
+alias irm='git checkout main; git integration-reset'
+```
+
+### Typical workflow
+
+1. Reset your code review checkout:
+
+    ```sh
+    irm
+    ```
+
+2. Check the Test results in:
+
+    - GitHub Actions
+    - TOBIC
+    - CIBot
+
+3. For each branch under review:
+
+    1. Copy the branch details using the "Merge command" button
+    2. Paste it into the console for your code review checkout
+    3. Resolve any merge conflicts and commit the merge
+    4. Run the integration diff command:
+
+        ```sh
+        id
+        ```
+
+    5. Check the output for any problems
+
+4. Use the "Push command" button to copy a `git push` command into your paste biuffer
+5. Paste it into your console, and review before pushing the code.
