+## Upgrading
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+External Secrets Operator has not reached stable 1.0 yet. This means that **we treat each minor version bump as a potentially breaking change**. Breaking changes may include:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+- API schema changes
|
|
|
+- Default behavior modifications
|
|
|
+- Deprecated feature removals
|
|
|
+- Provider authentication changes
|
|
|
+- Configuration format updates
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+**Important upgrade recommendations:**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. **Plan your upgrades carefully** - Always review release notes before upgrading, it could contain breaking changes information
|
|
|
+2. **Upgrade version by version** - We strongly recommend upgrading one minor version at a time (e.g., 0.18.x → 0.19.x → 0.20.x) rather than skipping versions
|
|
|
+3. **Test in non-production first** - Always validate upgrades in development/staging environments
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Until we reach v1.0, please treat minor version upgrades with the same caution you would give to major version upgrades in other projects.
