Git Integration with CI/CD
Configure and optimize Git integration with popular CI/CD platforms to trigger automated builds, tests, and deployments.
Git's Role in CI/CD
Welcome! In this lesson, we'll explore how Git integrates with Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) pipelines.
CI/CD automates the process of building, testing, and deploying software. Git is at its heart, acting as the trigger for these automated workflows.
Webhooks: Git's Messenger
The primary way Git communicates with CI/CD tools is through webhooks.
- A webhook is an automated HTTP POST request.
- Git hosting services (like GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) send these requests.
- They notify your CI/CD system about events, such as a new code push or a pull request.
