Ship/show/ask: A modern branching strategy

Pull requests have become a bottleneck. Engineers waste hours waiting for code reviews or long builds, switching between branches or reworking changes.

We are wasting time with no measurable improvement in quality. 

Ship/Show/Ask is a new software branching strategy that combines the features of Pull Requests with the ability to keep shipping changes.

In this session, we'll look at branching in a more inclusive, dynamic way to unlock impactful code reviews without creating bottlenecks.

Participant takeaways:

• An understanding of the pros and cons of pull requests as a mechanism for integration
• A new, modern branching strategy that takes a more dynamic view on branching
• Practical next steps for moving from "mostly ship" or "mostly ask" approaches

Themes:

Developer Experience, Code Review, Version Control.
