Ask HN: WordPress dev set up with database syncing?

Many WordPress setups involve changes being made to both the files and database. For example, you might upload a plugin like Elementor (files) and use some features from it that modify the design of pages/posts (css files + database changes). Maybe you want to test those changes first in your dev environment. Syncing changes to files is relatively easy with git and/or CD tools, but how do you sync changes from your dev to production databases when ready to deploy?
