Hi, looking at Prefect vs Airflow. AWS' MWAA has a mechanism where you can upload a DAG to a designated s3 bucket and it automatically registers with Airflow. I've read a little about the file based flow idioms in prefect, but is there any mechanism to point at say github repo and automatically register the flows? I know it's just one step but if I were to have a lot of flows I'd love to be able to just store my flows in git, point prefect at my repo and have it manage the registrations based on my source

Perhaps a Github Action could be configured to do the flow registration upon say, a merge to the main branch?

I was thinking about that too
would just also want to get a list of all registered flows and and unregister/remove ones no longer in the repo..seems doable with GH Actions, but thought it could be a nice baked in feature too

Hey Jspeis! We’re looking into something like this 😉 For now, Amanda’s suggestion is the way to go 👍
