• Aug 26, 2026 Fleet Management kubectl-gs v5.8.0

  Added

  • gitops: generated repositories now record which version of the repository structure they were built with, in a .gitops-metadata.yaml file at the repository root. gitops init creates it and every gitops add ... records the layer it generated.
  • gitops check: new command reporting the parts of a GitOps repository that were generated with an older repository structure than the current kubectl-gs produces. It exits non-zero when anything is behind, so it can be used as a check in the repository’s own CI. Repositories created before this existed are brought in with gitops check --adopt. (#23540)

  Fixed

  • template cluster: releases without a published release-<provider> chart, such as a hand-crafted Release CR used for testing (e.g. 35.0.0-andreas), no longer produce an App CR pointing to a chart which does not exist. The cluster-<provider> chart is used instead, which resolves the Release CR in the management cluster. (#4347)
  • template cluster: --cluster-version is no longer ignored for CAPA, CAPZ and AKS. Setting it templates the given cluster-<provider> app version instead of the release-<provider> chart, which allows testing a provider chart build together with a release.
  • Commands that fail because you are not logged into a management cluster now print a hint telling you to run kubectl gs login, instead of only a raw client error such as dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8080: connect: connection refused or no matches for kind "AppCatalogEntry". The hint is added for every command, not just template cluster.
