Bingo. It surprises a lot of people how little you need to be successful if everyone's on the same page. I've worked places that had thousands (yeah, thousands) of apps, dozens or hundreds of millions line of code, and had little to no issues with collaboration (oh, they thought they did, but compared to almost any other company, they really didn't), and process/tooling involved github issues, markdown files for docs and little else. Sometimes they'd toss in trello in the mix and that's about it.
You definitely can do better, but as a baseline, it's more than enough.
