Guarantees of Isolation
The stronger the isolation between production code and experiment, the better.
People make mistakes. Iâve seen experimental code pushed to mainline production by error. Iâve seen people make bad panic changes under stress. But the real fault is in allowing two entirely separate generations of product to exist in the same protected space. If you can push to random-branch-x, you can push to master. Branches do not guarantee isolation of production-critical code. Forks do.
