Usually it is considered good proportion to start with to be 10% to work on a Developer Productivity and it should increase to 15% as company grow. But regarding source control it …

Sure, and what next? So considering that on big projects CI/CD may take up to an hour (in one of my projects it took 4 hours) the feedback loop would be great

Don't mix up downsides of multirepo and bad composition of your microservices
