  Kind of, that article recommends making things less complex if you do continuous delivery to a SaaS. The update article mentions it was meant for versioned software. I tried to articulate the various levels of branching you need in GitLab Flow https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/gitlab_flow.html https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/topics/gitlab_flow.html The various levels are: feature branches, production branches, environment branches, and release branches.

    Sounds like gitlab tried to fix githubflow instead of realising its fundamentally broken and going with the gerrit pattern that works fine for both trunk based and release style applications.

      We offer multiple options that depend on your need. GitHub flow and Git flow are at two ends but there are also intermediate steps.
