I've been coding GFX, which got its start as basically a personal project that I wasn't really serious about, other than releasing it as a curiosity. At first.
It has grown up, and it's being used now.
I have a single master branch. I don't have release branches or even tagged releases because i never bothered.
Now I need to run CI/CD from this stuff for a number of reasons, and this just isn't going to work with what I have going on right now.
The trouble is, I've not only never built out CI/CD stuff, I've never had to build a complex real-world github repro from the ground up before, and I'm realizing I'm out of my element. I guess I have been spoiled when working on already existing projects.
Today I'm running on fumes, so I'm not going to attack this right now. It's all incredibly overwhelming to me.
I'm at the point where I'd pay someone to consult with me on this, and maybe help me set up my repro better.

I would get yourself a deployment engineer, aka CI/CD Engineer. We have them at my shop and they are indispensable. You can get them on contract.
good luck.

If your repo is on GitHub, you can pay for its CI/CD service but you still have to set it up yourself.

First it's setting up github for something more than a trivial repo that I don't know how to do. Then I'll crack the CI/CD nut.

The Windows 11 "taskbar" is disgusting. It should be at the left of the screen, with real icons, with text, progress, etc. They downgraded my developer PC to a bloody iPhone.

I'm watching this series while I spend my endless hours on the trainer trying to maintain fitness during the endless frigid months between Toronto unfreezing, and weeks later, freezing again.
For those who haven't seen it (and honestly: avoid if you can) it has the classic "Cute cop / nerdy programmer" team up. Nothing unusual there, including the endless scenes along the lines of:
Her: I need [incredibly esoteric piece of data that would require a serious amount of access, data mining, analysis, bandwidth, and full security access]
Him: I'm on it
Computer: lots of beeps as he types
Him, seconds later: I have the [plans to the nuclear weapons / complete genome of the person standing next to her / the full backstory including kindergarten photos and psychologists notes of the bad guy]
Never one do you see the guy swear at his IDE for locking up, or have to wait for a long query to execute only to get a timeout, or to find that the latest update to Chrome screwed up that clever regex he was using to parse HTML. Though no boy genius would ever use regex to parse HTML, right?
I get that it pushed the story along and it's certainly fun to dream, but I think they are missing such an opportunity for comedy if they included just a tiny bit of our lives.

I'm watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D now and in one episode I watched last night the nerdy "engineer" had to boot up a Commodore (I think) to get the "servers" to recover after an attack. I saw 5 1/4 " floppies in use.

The stories are very poorly crafted.

Who cares? They're still fun.

The young'uns in the group are asking "what are these 5" 1/4 that he's talking about?"

Is that the series with X-Files's Cancer Man as the bad guy? Not a character spin-off...I mean the actor who portrayed him, William B. David.
I remember watching the series only for the sake of seeing what he was up to. Was also curious to see him in another role.
What a waste of time. I'm unfortunately just the right (wrong?) type of OCD so if I start watching a TV series, no matter how bad, I have to see it to the end. That one is firmly in that pile.
[Edit]
As for the 'missed humor' opportunity - I hear ya, it'd be fun to see even if just once. There's just so many ways they could do it.
In a similar vein - I still remember watching Angel (the Buffy spin-off), where the good guy's running in a parking lot, jumps into his car (a convertible, so he literally jumped into the driver's seat), and after fumbling around with his key not fitting in the ignition...realizes he's in the wrong car, and his (practically identical) is sitting a few rows away.
Made him waste many precious seconds going after the bad guy, but it's the sort of thing you're completely NOT expecting in a moment like this. OTOH, this is not atypical of Joss Whedon's type of humor.

Yeah. Cancer man was such a great character.

I need to introduce you to a friend of mine. He's a retired psychologist, early 70's, and spends 4-6 hours on the trainer 3-4 times a week.
On a $5,000 carbon-fiber bit of kit.

We're in Ohio. He uses the trainer from November through February usually, or if we still have snow or ice.
Whenever he gripes about the weather outside, I tell him "Physician, heal thyself."
