Abstract

A graphical user interface is used to present one or more candidate patch target stages of a software development pipeline. Prior to deployment of a patch to a particular stage, an operation is performed to verify that a version of a deployed software at the particular stage has not changed since a record of a state of the particular stage was obtained. The deployment of the patch to the particular stage is initiated when the version of the deployed software has not changed.
