> I mean modern devops is basically circling back around to that idea but with “php files” replaced with “git repo.” I don't agree. DevOps is and has always been a guy FTP'ing files to a server. Except that guy was smart and wrote a script that runs as a git hook to automatically run that for him. That script was so successful that the same figurative guy also integrated tests and checks and rollbacks into his script. After spending some time with the script, that guy noticed that the whole software development cycle would be far better if the software they were developing and deploying had some design features to eliminate potential problems and simplify said scripts. But in the end it's always a guy pushing files to a server. But doing it the smart way.
