Ask HN: How do you promote code through environments in GitHub for GitOps?

Currently, when developer push code to dev branch, Github Actions build starts, builds and merge code to staging branch. It also opens PR to merge to main branch.I have ArgoCD which syncs with both those branches and apply to our Kubernetes clusters.While simple and works, it's messy and introduces extra commits.How do you do this or what's the proper way to do this?

Re:Ever volunteered to help a tech startup? on Tuesday July 14, 2020 @09:21AM (#23831588)
I have no clue why would anyone give out their spare time for free to a company without getting any returns. It's not that it's charity so one could feel better about the world, it's just another tech startup. This is nuts.

Yeah,cards get shorter if there are no labels. Heights are also added by due dates and other attributes in addition to card title length itself.

All of them suck to be honest because they're notnmade by people who consume lots of multimedia so they don't know problems, usually.
I would totally want to hear this guy's feedback on fasting, ADF specifically.

Not to mention Hola :D Anyway, I'm sad to have my VPN provider (VPNSecure) mentioned somewhat badly.
Thanks everybody for answers!

From what I gather from all these replies people's main concern is that FreeBSD is generally harder to use/configure and management is hard to persuade into supporting it because it would make DevOps less productive.

From the standpoint of a person who run FreeBSD in production on both bare metal and VM's and manages several commercial applications and websites, I must say that plenty (if not all) of these phobias are unjustified. Yes, there are some edge cases but 95% of the time, there's nothing new to learn you already don't know, except new package manager commands and slightly different file system layout.

Not using awesome technologies like ZFS, Boot Environments, Jails, Qjail, Poudriere and awesome PF is just a plain missing out in my opinion.

I personally don't care about desktop, there are already 2 awesome OS's that majority of people use for a reason and that's pretty much enough I think.

I personally heard nothing but praises from people who are long term Linux users/admins who tried it.

Once people figured out couple of OS specifics its all breeze :)

There days people use freebsd-update to do this. http://serverfault.com/a/738217/41952

Accompanies with ZFS boot environments there's literally minimal fuss about upgrading and worrying about possible breakages.
