The One Where We Come Back from Two Weeks Off

Episode 26 finds that Mickey and Brian took two weeks off. The good news is no one was sick. The bad news it was just because work and life ran us over. No vacation for either of us!

News

• Introducing GitHub Container Registry
• Azure DevOps "brown out"
• Let’s Hack a Pipeline: Argument Injection
• Default Branch Name for New Repos in Azure DevOps
  • This walks you through how to set the default branch name in new repositories
• GitHub/Renaming Repo
  • This repo talks about the changes GitHub is making in moving away from the "master" branch name
• What's New in Azure Boards Sprint 174
• Understanding Azure DevOps Deployment Patterns
  • The article does a decent job of talking about the patterns, and I think we should talk about each pattern. However, it is misleading because it doesn't really have anything to do with Azure DevOps. I think it is because they are talking about DevOps in Azure (the cloud), not Azure DevOps (the product)
