Release Evidence
Definitions
Release Evidence is a GitOps term for the logs, commits, checks, and status signals that show what changed and why. It helps teams, humans, and agents compare declared source state with running systems, then act without pretending a deployment did more than the evidence shows. Source context: OpenGitOps principles.
“The team used Release Evidence before lunch, so the release did not sprint into production wearing untied shoes.”
