It is meant to be used in conjunction with the +Baserock CD pipeline (Mason) to reduce the cognitive load on the systems +integration role, freeing brain cycles for more constructive development work. + +Currently Firehose is limited to applying all of its inputs in a single +integration and it only supports the absolute-sha landing method (which assumes +a zero delta between upstream and what we need for Baserock) but for anything +where that holds true, Firehose can provide a valuable service pre-integrating +and running those integrations through a CD pipeline to gain confidence in the +proposed change.
