Explanation

The administrators' problem is the inability to review the history of changes made to their deployment template over time. This is precisely the problem that versioning (version control) solves. By storing the template in a version control system such as Git, every change is recorded with metadata including what changed, who changed it, and when - enabling full historical review, comparison between versions, and rollback if needed. Drift detection identifies when live infrastructure diverges from a desired state template, but does not track template change history. Repeatability refers to consistently recreating environments, which they already achieve. Documentation could capture changes manually but is not a systematic or searchable history mechanism. Versioning is the correct concept.
