Question

Why should you keep your application source code and your Kubernetes manifests in separate Git repositories?

Answer

Mixing app code and deploy configs means every code commit triggers a config repo scan, and deploy changes pollute your app commit history. Separate repos give you independent access control (devs vs. SREs), cleaner audit trails, and let Argo CD watch only the config repo without noisy webhooks from code changes.
