If you develop something then you own the lifecycle of that product, which means you would work with QA, DevOps to ensure it’s tested/deployed. We use a variant of git-flow, for every ticket, we clone the repo and we run automation tests on every merge request. What operating systems do you use? Nginx, HAproxy.
