🚀 Git driven CD -- you know what got deployed

Git driven CD (Continuous Deployment) typically means whenever you merge to main , or tag a repo, something automatically gets deployed. It can be something as simple as a static website being updated.

One of the biggest advantages to this is that you know for sure the code was checked in and tagged. And you know exactly what code was deployed. There is no manual process involved to mess it up.

This may not seem like a big deal, but it is. As humans, we get lazy and forget to do the simple things like manually tagging a repo -- especially on small teams where process is not emphasized. However, CD is a way to have a process without having a process. You do it in the name of saving time, but it also gives you enough process that things are now also consistent.
