043 - Trunk-Based Development

Working independently on your own source code branch seems like a great idea until you have to merge it to the mainline. Just like with parallel processing, the bottleneck often comes when you try to combine results. Trunk-Based Development revolves on a simple idea: always commit your changes to the mainline daily. In this episode, Allan and Dave discuss this concept, the benefits, and how to use feature flags to decouple deployment from release.
