>I've talked to developers who have taken a single app that worked perfectly fine and split it into five or six services just because "microservices!"

I think the idea is to use microservices when they will be owned by separate teams. If your application is small enough that a single team can meaningfully work on it, then you probably don't need to break it up.

Could you explain that to my manager please? He wants our one team to maintain 6+ microservices, each in their own git repo. Its going to be such a cluster-schtuppe, I just know it, and no one cares to listen to reason...

Splitting your code becomes a pain when branches touch more than one program.
