The centralization and also the monitoring are hard nopes for me.

If the monitoring was all local and not pushed up to k8s instantly, maybe. But this screams of a PHB's wet dream.

As someone who has maintained forks of large FOSS code bases. This also makes doing that harder. I wasn't interested in sharing my changes. But I wanted SCM to allow me to merge upstream's changes.

This feels like a step back to systems like Clearcase, and I.. Just don't want it.
