Can you please elaborate? because the best and most tested, easiest to read and maintain code I have worked with was a project that only had master and branching wasn't allowed.

I agree, mostly. Perhaps you took my comment too literal and perhaps I took the article too broadly. I don't like the develop/next type branching schemes, and perhaps that is what the article is referring to. Branches are the best part of Git and that's what makes PullRequests so powerful. Without branches, we're back in the SVN/CVS stone-ages
