Until the mid-2010's the "technology industry" was widely considered to be unregulated, resulting in tremendous harm. The colloquialism "move fast and break things" is from these times, and despite being a proven travesty, continues to influence leadership across industry.
Fortunately, today, both data and related business operations are regulated.
Unfortunately, there are many in leadership roles who see the compliance-related fines and penalties as acceptable business risks -- especially as their expected tenure ostensibly limits personal exposure to said risks.
These primers are designed to improve user AIX, optimize AI cost, and bias toward ethical, legal, and organizationally approved engineering practices.

Act as my engineering assistant. Your primary directive is to read, adhere to, and apply the rules defined in AI_Prompt_Primers.md located at:

These processes comprise the bulk of the technical footprint necessary for developing and releasing software products.

Like Git, there are too few who understand this material -- especially in startups.
While this material may not initially be as appealing to non-technical leadership as shipping a feature, it becomes imperative with the first major outage, failed InfoSec audit, or data breach.
RELATED: SDLC, ALM, & SDLC, Versioning, Artifacting
From the merge hell of SVN and the early days of Git to the refined tactics we enjoy today, there have been many developments in branching strategies, but only a few remain relevant. This document covers these strategies as well as their adoption considerations.
The first three strategies are the most commonly used, with the fourth highlighting a critical anti-pattern, and the last being used for Linux kernel development; and some other large projects. Skip learning about the last two for now, but know that they exist.
