Full Changelog: v0.61.0-rc1...v0.61.1

v0.61.0

v0.61.0 Release!

NOTE!: This release updated Helm to version v3.18.6, which contains a bug in the schema checking code. You may run into issues with complex Helm charts that passed schema validation in prior versions. We recommend updating to Zarf v.0.61.1 to avoid this issue, which downgrades helm to v3.18.4

NOTE!: This release introduces the inclusion of flavor in the package tarball name.
Example: zarf package create examples/package-flavors/ --architecture amd64 --flavor rocky-road
Output: zarf-package-package-flavors-amd64-1.0.0-rocky-road.tar.zst

Other Notable Changes:

• Initial support for CLI feature flags with axolotl-mode
  • Run --features axolotl-mode=true for a sneak peak
• Removal of sget support
• shorthand -c added to the --confirm flag
• Interactive removal when --confirm is not provided
• various bug fixes
  Additionally we welcomed Boeing to the list of Adopters for Zarf!
  Thank you to everyone to contributed to making this release possible.

v0.59.0

Note

There is a known bug in this release for users who manage custom-named init packages. If you use a custom init package and the metadata.name is not init then upgrades to v0.59.0 will fail and require manual intervention. This is due to assumptions that Zarf makes about release naming. Issue #4031 for tracking.
