- byroot 7y agoNo, even with v1, the merge weren't manual. A bot would merge for you, but directly into master. Now the bot merges into a temporary that is fast-forwarded as the new master if CI validates it.
- dkoston 7y agoInteresting. Would you say this is more of a decision based around the constraints of using GitHub or more of the ideal process for Shopify’s needs? I’m curious because the article doesn’t mention the core reasons that you chose to write your own CD tool versus the other options that exist. The workflow you describe seems readily available in most tools. Perhaps the throughput was causing other options to break?
