git for source code and bug tracking... it's all a mess, when you can use something like fossil.

The issue is 100% Git... ooh look it runs Git, so can we apply the ol’ fsmonitor chestnut there?

GitFlow seemed to be better aligned with modelling the versioned software approach... but Git Flow's release branching model added overhead - people might forget to merge back to develop, deal with conflicts or semantic brokenness.
