Flux 1.14.0 adds Git read-only mode, “fluxctl install” and more
This feature release adds a read-only mode to the Flux daemon, adds support for mapping images in HelmRelease resources using YAML dot notation annotations, eases the deployment of Flux with a new fluxctl install command which generates the required YAML manifests, lots of documentation improvements, and many more.
