Overengineered Git Deployment

I have setup GIT, with precommit and postcommit checks... ...I created an automatic deploy between our three environments... ...and I prepared a comprehensive doc with coding conventions and all data model guidelines! Was it really necessary to spend one month for that? We're a two-person startup... Solid foundations, it's important...

A four-panel CommitStrip comic shows a developer proudly presenting an elaborate Git setup, automatic deployment between three environments, and extensive documentation. His colleague points out that they are only a two-person startup and wonders whether a month of work was necessary. The punchline is the contrast between enterprise-level engineering practices and the tiny scale of the team, while the developer insists that solid foundations matter.
