Velocity5.0

GitOps delivery tool for building and deploying to Kubernetes

werf v3.12.1 is tagged on every channel including stable and rock-solid, not just dev.

◆Current state
werf v3.12.1 fixes deploys that use saved plans containing a blind apply, and it is the first v3 release in the feed tagged on the alpha, beta, ea, stable and rock-solid channels rather than dev. The v2 line continues in parallel (v2.84.0 alpha) with the same build features.
◆Where it's heading
Through October the v3 line had shipped as dev releases that mirrored v2 features while adding its own Helm-compatible release storage. Putting v3.12.1 on all channels suggests v3 is now the main line and v2 is moving to maintenance, though the entry itself doesn't say so.
◆Prediction
Expect v3 releases to keep landing on stable channels and v2 to receive fewer feature releases; a migration note for v2 users would confirm the shift.

    v3.12.1 reaches stable channels; saved-plan deploy fix

    A one-fix patch for deploys from saved plans that contain a blind apply. What matters is the channel list: it is the first v3 release in the feed published to stable and rock-solid, which suggests v3 is moving from the dev track toward production use.

    v2.84.0: publish cached images with require-built-images

    With require-built-images, werf can now publish images it finds in cache instead of failing or rebuilding, which matters for pipelines that split build and deploy stages. It is the v2 half of a same-day pair with v3.12.0.

    v3.12.0: publish cached images with require-built-images

    The v3 dev line gets the same cached-image publishing as v2.84.0, keeping the two lines in step on build features. v3.11 does not appear in the feed.

    v2.83.0: pinned-commit submodule fetch, import recovery

    v2.83.0 fetches only the pinned commit of submodules missing locally and fixes interrupted Stapel imports and bad cached-stage configs. Leaner git work continues the build-inputs focus of v2.82.0.

    v3.10.0: own Helm-compatible release storage, submodule fetch

    v3.10.0 carries the same build fixes as v2.83.0 but adds werf's own Helm-compatible release storage with streamed reads. That is the first deploy-side divergence for v3 in this window.

    v2.82.0: git provenance for build commands, separate metadata repos

    Build commands can now read git source provenance, and v2 can keep metadata in a separate repository. Unsuffixed list environment variables are accepted. It is the first v2 feature release after a run of fix-only patches.
