In our automated system we always use the latest version of a stemcell and dependent compiled releases and have automation that attempts to keep the Kilnfile.lock current using
update-stemcell
andfind-release-version
/update-release
.On occasion:
when a new release and stemcell are created close together
and while trying to update the stemcell
the current release version in the Kilnfile.lock may not have a matching compiled release for the new stemcell.
Scenario example:
This leaves the following compiled releases available:
Since release-v2-stemcell-v2 is missing,
kiln update-stemcell
cannot update theKilnfile.lock
The proposed change in this PR adds an optional
--update-releases
flag toupdate-stemcell
to match the latest release for the specified stemcell given the version constraints in theKilnfile
and allow the prior scenario to update theKilnfile.lock
Existing functionality without the
--update-releases
flag is retained.
