Disagree. A ticket should be created for any change, no matter how small. It takes seconds to write a title, body and hit submit. I've seen those small ad-hoc changes cause havoc because someone forgot to escape a single quote or didn't realize tabs were necessary and replaced them with spaces.
The default for Confluence is just that, everyone commits at will. There is no structure, tons of duplication, no standards when it comes to naming, formatting, audience, etc. I'm a huge fan of markdown/plain-text solutions, only because linters can be run that force you down one happy path. I don't believe Confluence has linters at all.
You can! At least with GitLab. Our pipelines are written in Python, and generate YAML that kick off child-pipelines. It's fairly trivial and works really well. Having for-loops and building an object based on functions making things so much easier.
Nah, Ibuprofen definitely affects the kidneys. It's on my mental list of medications never to try again. It always leaves me writhing in pain (thought it was my lower back that was on fire, turns out it was my kidneys).
