Drift Detection and Automated Sync
Catching and correcting out-of-band changes.
What Drift Means
Drift is when the live cluster no longer matches what is declared in Git, often from a hotfix someone applied by hand.
Why Drift Is Risky
Drift makes Git lie about reality. The next deploy can silently undo an undocumented fix, or hide a change no one remembers making.
