Explanation
Config Connector is a Google-maintained Kubernetes add-on that lets developers manage Google Cloud resources (Cloud SQL, GCS, Pub/Sub, etc.) using Kubernetes CRDs stored in Git. It continuously reconciles the declared desired state against actual GCP resource state, directly preventing configuration drift - which is the core requirement. This fits naturally into a GitOps workflow since all resource definitions live in source control. Options B, C, and D all involve Terraform but require external triggers or one-time Jobs; none provide the continuous, periodic reconciliation that Config Connector delivers natively.
