Continuous Integration in Depth

Continuous Integration is the least glamorous and most important half of CI/CD. It's also the most misunderstood — teams install a build server, call it "CI," and miss the actual practice, which is a discipline about how often you merge, not which tool runs your tests. This post is about the real thing: integrating small, integrating often, and keeping the mainline always green.
