> So a revert of a deployment happens in the "deploy-state" repo, not in the monorepo. This makes me think you're disagreeing with the literal interpretation of what I wrote, while very much agreeing in spirit. I'm not trying to say that a VCS is an intrinsically wrong solution to managing deployment state (I'm not a fan, but it's an eminently reasonable approach). My issue is with deployment state and application source being enmeshed in the same repo such that you can't evolve one without messing with the other.
