Impact
Force pushes can have a wide range of negative impact on an organization. Here are some examples:
-
Data Loss: Force pushes can overwrite changes made by other team members, leading to data loss and making it difficult to track who made what changes.
-
Reduced Accountability: Force pushes can make it difficult to track who made what changes to the codebase, reducing accountability and transparency.
-
Security Risks: Force pushes can introduce security vulnerabilities into the codebase, allowing attackers to exploit the organization’s systems or access sensitive data, leading to data breaches, financial losses, or reputational damage.
-
Operational Disruptions: Force pushes may cause unexpected errors, crashes, or downtime in the organization’s systems, disrupting business operations and causing financial losses.
-
Delayed Detection of Issues: Force pushes can bypass proper review and testing processes, allowing issues such as bugs or performance problems to go unnoticed until they cause significant problems in production.
