 Intelligent DevOps

 New Feature: Branch Demerge

 This is huge! With this release, a market-first demerge functionality finally automates the ability to demerge branches   by helping developers, admins and release managers simplify the process of rolling back and undoing changes.

 Why is this important?

 Removing user stories from a release branch is a release manager’s worst nightmare. Imagine the chaos if 100+ user   stories have been merged, but then the business says they aren’t ready for stories 55-60. Historically, the release   manager would need to re-create the entire release branch. One of the biggest pain points in the DevOps lifecycle is   demerging branches as part of ongoing development activity, causing hours – if not weeks – of manual work to deal   with this changing release feature scope, especially if the team consists of 50-60 developers.

 The demerge functionality provides a solution to this common problem. Demerge will allow release managers to   remove unwanted stories as well as the dependencies that come along with them.

release 1

 New Feature: Multi-Branch Merge 

 Flosum DevOps is now able to support multiple branch merges, improving release managers’ productivity while   allowing developers to merge multiple feature branches under a single release branch.

 Why is this important?

 This feature will improve velocity of development and ease of use for both developers and release mangers.
