When should I use git branches?

All the time, but especially when you want to isolate changes that could potentially break an already stable application (which honestly is in most cases "all of the time").

It gives you the ability to isolate and track changes better, work with automation workflow tools, and easily and more concisely rollback changes.

Even if you're the only developer, you should be using branches to help keep yourself organized.
