A proposed way to speed up production fixes is to automate the handoffs around coding. This developer-loop talk describes an gathering a bug's requirements and logs, working in a separate checkout, testing a fix and preparing it for review and staging. Separate checkouts give concurrent tasks their own working files. The speaker's central argument is that writing code quickly has limited value if every subsequent step still waits for manual coordination. Human verification remains part of the proposed process, particularly when checking the staged result.
