## Quick Start ### Non-HA: ```shell kubectl create namespace argocd kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2.6.9/manifests/install.yaml ``` ### HA: ```shell kubectl create namespace argocd kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/v2.6.9/manifests/ha/install.yaml ``` ## ๐Ÿ›‘ Known Issues [Sidecar-installed Config Management Plugin discovery may fail](https://github.com/argoproj/argo-cd/issues/13940) for Applications whose `spec.source.path` is not `""` or `"."`. If you use sidecar Config Management Plugins which rely on running discovery rules in the Application's specified path, your Application may fail to refresh with an error about no supported plugins being found, or the CMP may incorrectly claim that it does support the app, and **it may produce unpredictable manifests, including _no manifests_, which will prune all your resources**. If you are affected, either use >= 2.6.10. ## Release signatures All Argo CD container images and CLI binaries are signed by cosign. See the [documentation](https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/signed-release-assets/) on how to verify the signatures. ```shell -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- MFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAEesHEB7vX5Y2RxXypjMy1nI1z7iRG JI9/gt/sYqzpsa65aaNP4npM43DDxoIy/MQBo9s/mxGxmA+8UXeDpVC9vw== -----END PUBLIC KEY----- ``` ## Upgrading If upgrading from a different minor version, be sure to read the [upgrading](https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/upgrading/overview/) documentation. ## Changes This release includes 15 contributions from 5 contributors (3 of them new) with 0 features and 8 bug fixes.
