By comparison I've worked with someone who pushed a '2 line fix' live which had fallout which lasted >2 weeks because their code was pushed without checking to production and had hard-coded their uid into the fix because it was a quick 'hack'... The main reason when cornered was 'running pip install is too difficult to run the test-suite' (tests themselves took <30sec to run all ~300). We eventually (1 week later) got permission to pull the release from our shared (pseudo write-only) storage area but as he was project lead he tagged a new minor version for his '2 line fix' without consulting anyone and our users were reluctant to move to a new bugfix release unless prodded with a red-hot poker. Can't say I miss working with _some_ programmers turned managers.
