Sync Window
Definitions
Sync Window is a GitOps term for a time window that allows or blocks synchronization. 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: Argo CD documentation.
“The team used Sync Window before lunch, so the release did not sprint into production wearing untied shoes.”
