GitOps: Git Based Application Deployment Patterns for Kubernetes
summary
Claim: use Git as the single source of truth to drive Kubernetes clusters so commits become deployments. Demonstrates a working git push builds and deploys flow (source → Docker build → image push → kubectl set image) and a demo where editing a static page rolls out immediately. Uses Kubernetes operators and controllers (examples: Flux, custom CRDs) to reconcile state, secrets handled with sealed-secrets, and cites a Weaveworks recovery in about 20–30 minutes.
