It's not exactly a great name for the team but it gets across the point - we handle developer experience from the point you want to push your code to when you merge it, so we also work on communicating with CI/CD, code review/ownership tooling, gitops bots etc. Git Performance is a big issue right now but there's no end in sight to all the other scaling problems we could work on so if it stops making sense, we can work on something else :)

disclaimer: canva staff working on (for now) source control

I am curious why git modules couldn't be used here, and perhaps scripted to match particular workflows.

That's fair, and I think you're doing great work. I enjoyed the article
