Highlights

Flux v2.9.6 is a patch release that stops helm-controller from reapplying chart CRDs on every upgrade when server-side apply is enabled, and recovers HelmReleases left with a drifted Ready=Unknown condition after a failed status patch. source-controller normalizes Azure Blob listing ETags so unchanged containers are no longer re-downloaded on every reconcile, and evicts stale Helm repository index entries from the cache so repositories with frequently changing indexes no longer fail with "Cache is full". kustomize-controller extends SOPS decryption error redaction to spec.postBuild.substituteFrom values, so substituted secrets echoed back in API validation errors are masked out of status conditions and events, and adds the opt-in DisableCommitStatusEvent feature gate. Users are encouraged to upgrade for the best experience.

ℹ️ Please follow the Upgrade Procedure for Flux v2.7+ for a smooth upgrade from Flux v2.6 to the latest version.

Fixes:

• Stop reapplying chart CRDs on upgrades when using server-side apply with the default Create policy (helm-controller)
• Recover HelmReleases stranded with a drifted Ready=Unknown condition after a failed status patch (helm-controller)
• Ignore NotFound when deleting the HelmChart (helm-controller)
• Normalize Azure Blob listing ETags so unchanged containers are not re-downloaded on every reconcile (source-controller)
• Evict stale Helm repository index entries from the cache to avoid "Cache is full" errors (source-controller)
• Extend SOPS decryption error redaction to spec.postBuild.substituteFrom values (kustomize-controller)

Improvements:

• Add the opt-in DisableCommitStatusEvent feature gate (kustomize-controller)
