Sep 15, 2022 Highlights

User interfaces

In kubectl-gs we have deprecated some flags in three commands, to avoid name conflicts with global flags (which are usable in all commands). You will see a warning when using the deprecated flags. This affects the following commands:

kubectl gs template app: flag --target-namespace replaces --namespace, --cluster-name replaces --cluster.
kubectl gs template catalog: flag --target-namespace replaces --namespace.
kubectl gs gitops add app: flag --target-namespace replaces --namespace.

Please move any scripts to the new flags, as the old flags will change their meaning with the next major release of kubectl-gs.

kubectl-gs now also provides a command get organizations, which is a way for all management API users to list the organizations they have access to. kubectl get organizations in contrast requires admin permissions.
