Yes it would be time consuming. It's worth the time. An upgrade would probably help you too. > I know that R10k and dynamic environments is the recommended > way of doing things, though for now I'm not sure if its the best for my > scenario and how everything has been previously set up.

The above is a great way to see your environments drift over time. If you want each environment to be a separate git repo you can, but it sounds like you may as well have them all as branches in a single git repo. That way you can at least diff different branches easily and cherry pick single changes from one to the other. > Deployment strategy > > - Upload changes to Dev repo > > - Deploy Dev changes to Dev master > > - Test > > - Merge Dev changes to QA repo > > - Rinse and repeat What is QA for, in this scenario? Determining that you've brought up the correct set of changes from dev? If so, why not use git itself to prove that you've brought up the correct changes, as specified by git commits, to your mainline branch? > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Puppet Users" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [1]puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > > [2]https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/puppet-users/fe80ff27-af02-4437-bbc9-57c1cd56e5aa%40googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit [3]https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > > References > > Visible links > 1. mailto:puppet-users+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > 2. > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/puppet-users/fe80ff27-af02-4437-bbc9-57c1cd56e5aa%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer > 3. https://groups.google.com/d/optout -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
