I once fixed an important bug by force-pushing on the master branch (I was an admin too and could do it). I had 5 minutes to fix it, and no one was aware of it. I didn’t ask for permission but I was sweating a lot.
I’ve done critical fixes (usually config) direct on a prod server with vim over ssh before now. Not the best way to do it but sometimes waiting for CI will just take too long…
I’ve lost track of the number of Report Builder files I’ve had to update via Notepad++ - the intended editor has so many weird kinks and corner cases it’s often easier to just edit the file directly!
Are you even a real programmer if you haven’t fixed a prod critical but in notepad++ because your ide won’t open for whatever reason?

Old school “CI/CD” was an FTP server where you dropped DLLs into I remember
