That guitar hero thing is hilarious.
Git flow is something I spent a lot of time theory crafting about years ago. I’d say wasted time, but learning is never a waste and one of the things I learned is the value of deferring complexity whenever possible, especially if there’s no downside.
Using a trunk and tag (that’s what I call it) workflow today doesn’t prevent you from adopting something more complex if the need arises, so it makes a ton of sense for it to be the default on new projects, especially for new developers IMO.
