It's an atrocious, pointlessly complicated system resulting in convoluted project histories prone to confusion. Trunk-based development with sensible tags of releases & hotfixes achieves the same thing without the junk complexity. Git flow isn't overkill, it's just ill-conceived.
This is a joke, right? OneFlow isn’t trunk-based development and is actually gitflow with different steps. I have yet to see any org actually use trunk-based development mostly because I’ve not seen cherry-picking from the trunk adopted at any large scale.
