GitOps je pristop k neprekinjenemu razvijanju (zlasti za Kubernetes), kjer je Git edini vir resnice za željeno stanje infrastrukture in aplikacij, in avtomatiziran agent nenehno uskladi dejansko stanje tako, da se ujema z Git. Spremembe se izvršijo preko Git, sistem pa jih samodejno prenese in uporabi.
Model GitOps
Git holds the DESIRED STATE (declarative configs: Kubernetes manifests, Helm charts, etc.):
→ an AGENT in the cluster continuously COMPARES actual state vs Git (desired state)
→ it RECONCILES: automatically applies changes to make reality match Git
→ to deploy/change: commit to Git → the agent detects and applies it (PULL-based)
→ Git = single source of truth; the system continuously converges to it.
