How are changes tracked in Copado?

In Copado, changes are tracked primarily through the use of Git for commits and branches. This version control system is integral to the CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment) process that Copado facilitates. By utilizing Git, teams can efficiently manage changes to code and metadata, allowing for versioning, branching, and merging. Each commit in the repository serves as a point in time that tracks what changes were made, who made them, and when they were made. This organized approach to version control ensures that all changes are logged and retrievable, enabling a clear audit trail of modifications and effective collaboration among team members.

Additionally, the branch structure in Git allows developers to work on features or fixes in isolation before merging them back into the main codebase, providing a systematic way to develop and deploy changes. This is particularly beneficial in collaborative environments where multiple developers may be making changes simultaneously. By leveraging Git, Copado offers a robust framework for change tracking that is essential for modern development practices.
