I joined my current company to work on Growth. I was added to Gitlab, and for the first 3 months I pushed all my commits as MRs that my manager reviewed and merged into main. Standard procedure.

One day I needed to get a hotfix out to prod STAT. I pinged my manager to accept the MR and explained all the testing I've done. He said I could just accept it myself if I wanted it up now.

Turns out I've had the permission to push to prod since day one. The only red tape I had to cross was my own confidence.
