There is no administrative overhead. I'mm not proposing to work with epics,
stories and whatnot.
No: You create a branch, develop your thing, and push. That's it.
Press a button to merge.
The difference with before: we have a good record that's easier to handle.
And if we find it really does not work, we switch back. It's that simple.
I would be against that.
No surprise there.
We see the world very differently. As far as I am concerned, the change to
gitlab has only been for the good. The number of merged merge requests is a
testimony to that.
Your last words in your mail clearly indicate you have a different view of that.
Probably a matter of glass half full/half empty.
Michael.
