Git is a version control system for tracking changes in computer files and coordinating work on those files among multiple people.
This PPT describes most used commands.
Recently one of our customers faced the challenge of fixing a production error in his desktop client application. The application is deployed in different versions and may of course be deployed to different customers with a different set of features. Although this scenario seems quite common nowadays, a lot of software companies are not ready to tackle this problem.

Trunk Based Development in the Enterprise - Its Relevance and EconomicsPerforce
Paul Hammant of ThoughtWorks runs through the history of the 'Trunk Based Development' branching model, its modern usage in big enterprises, and how management and technical stakeholders can benefit from it, and Perforce in particular, in their enterprise. Takeaways include prerequisites, pitfalls, economics, scaling, and related practices.
Are you sick of Merge Hell? Do your feature branches go rogue? Do you spend more time fiddling with your Version Control System than doing actual development work? Then Trunk Based Development might be for you. Facebook does it. Google does it. Instead of messing with multiple branches, just use your master branch. Always. In addition to giving you an overview about how Trunk Based Development works, where it shines and where the pitfalls are, this talk will also cover the necessary techniques to succeed with it, such as Branch By abstraction, Feature Toggles and backwards compatible Database Migrations.
Deployments are one of the most important parts of any project. Yet in my experience deploying is one of the most dreaded parts of a project. Early starts, Rollbacks stress and joy. However deploying should not be like this. Continuous delivery and deployments are nothing new but they do take a shift in how we think as developers both from the infrastructure aspect and revisions in code. During this talk I will take you through my journey of continuous delivery with E-Commerce applications where we deploy several times a day, use feature toggles to hide functionality and how we handle git in an ever deployable environment.
This talk will take you through a history of how I previously handled PHP deployments highlighting the areas I wanted improving, Speed to deploy, Ease of deployment, Experimentation and agility. We will then learn more about CD with feature branching and feature toggles and what the infrastructure looks like for PHP projects wanting to take advantage of this. My hope is that people will leave the room with enough knowledge to explore there own deployment process and how they can leverage parts of CD to aid in there workflow.
This presents my experience with building Swing apps vs. Android apps in the past 10+ years. It is not intended to go into deep details of technology but rather highlighting the main aspects and differences between the 2 platforms
This presentation was given at The Ceara Java User Group meeting in Fortaleza, Ceara, Brasil December 9, 2011 by Johnny Hujol.
Feature toggle widely used in industry to release incomplete features and do A/B testing on features. The presentation covers pros and cons of the approach and share some tips and tricks.

OSGi Semantic Versioning with Baselining in enRoute - P Kriensmfrancis
OSGi Community Event 2014
Abstract:
Most people consider versions tedious and boring. And they are right! However, that does not make them less important. Unless you always compile all your code together and never have to go back in time, versions are the threads that keep the systems together in a stable way. That is, if people did not make those stupid mistakes with versions ...
Meet semantic versioning and baselining. Semantic versions provide a framework to automate version handling. This framework is used in bnd(tools) to automate most version handling.
This presentation will show what OSGi semantic versions are and its extension to also semantically version contracts. It will demonstrate the bnd(tools) support which is part of enRoute to detect semantic version violations in real time as well as in the continuous build.
Speaker Bio:
Peter Kriens is an independent consultant since 1990.He currently works for the OSGi Alliance and jpm4j.

Jenkins as the Test Reporting FrameworkNitin Sharma
Test Reporting Framework are the ultimate utilities reached by very few companies in the world likes of google & facebook.
It require significant investment in terms money and resources. To optimize on both we tried the approach of extending Jenkins for the same purpose.
We like to share our experiences with respect to this journey. We will talk about different cahllenges we faced in doing so and how we solved them.
We strongly believe that other startup can use our experience and get benefit from this immensely.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Unlocking Productivity: Leveraging the Potential of Copilot in Microsoft 365, a presentation by Christoforos Vlachos, Senior Solutions Manager – Modern Workplace, Uni Systems
3. Feature Branches
● master branch is used for rollouts
● Little work done directly on master
● For every feature/bugfix, cut a branch
● To rollout a feature, merge to master
master
feature A
feature B
10. Merging is A CHANGE to the codebase
Merging counts as a change to the codebase
→ Need to perform manual tests before rollout
End up doing same tests before and after merge
12. Feature branches are not subject to CI
Jenkins is only working against master
Manually creating a job per feature branch is silly
Can automate it, but it's complicated and brittle
16. Branch by Abstraction
The name is misleading...
Using B by A, we DON'T BRANCH!
NO BRANCHES == No MERGING
17. Branch by Abstraction
● All dev is done on master
● Incomplete work is disabled using feature flags
● master is always stable, ready for rollout
● Changes performed by introducing abstraction
18. Making a change using B by A
1. Add abstraction layer around the code you want to
change. (Extract interfaces, etc.)
2. Add the new implementation, but keep using the
old implementation in production.
3. Flip the switch! (Update flags, switch Guice modules, etc.)
4. Remove old implementation if no longer needed
19. Example: Switching to a new auth API
1. Refactor concrete class LoginService into
interface + impl class
class
LoginService
interface
LoginService
class
LegacyLoginServic
e
Update surrounding code to use LegacyLoginService
(Maybe add a factory to provide the implementation?)
20. Example: Switching to a new auth API
2. Add new implementation (+ unit tests, of course!)
interface
LoginService
class
LegacyLoginServic
e
Add feature flag to allow switching between implementations in
test environment
interface
LoginService
class
LegacyLoginServic
e
class
NewLoginService
21. Example: Switching to a new auth API
3. Flip the switch!
Update the value of the feature flag in production
22. Example: Switching to a new auth API
4. Remove old implementation
interface
LoginService
class
LegacyLoginServic
e
interface
LoginService
class
DefaultLoginServic
e
class
NewLoginService
Refactor (change class names, etc.) if necessary
23. Example: Switching to a new auth API
Finished!
Remember:
● All this happened on master
● Codebase was stable throughout the process
● Both new and old impls were subject to CI
● No merging!
24. Branch by Abstraction: Prerequisites
● Reasonably good, modular codebase
○ Easy to introduce abstractions
● Good devs!
○ Can be trusted not to break the build
● A good suite of unit tests
● A feature flag system
○ Ideally, well-integrated with toolchain
○ e.g. enable features using checkboxes in Jenkins
