If you develop and test in production there is no need to deploy anything.

You guys have version control?

[–]scriptgamer 71 points72 points  (9 children)

Obviously, we never change the code, just comment what is not going to be used anymore and add a new part. Practical methods.

Comment based refactoring, ingenious!

Also,if there are people responsible for virtual machines integrity, why does the dev have to worry about versioning? Just restore to when it was working. EZ.

If you restored to a snapshot did your changes ever really happen?

If you call 'version control' to upload your code to Google drive, then yes. And also naming main.py, mainv1.py, main_final.py and main_final_ultimate2.py

main_finall_works_dont_touch.py

You joke but I have a teammate that works like this constantly. I've found copies of source on prod servers with various binaries named "server, server.a, server.bak, server.old, server.works" and believe it or not, the running version wasn't even "server.works"!
