Changes

Features

• ✨ feat: resolve steps referencing StepActions concurrently (feat: resolve steps referencing StepActions concurrently #8925)

The resolution of StepActions within a TaskRun is now performed concurrently, which can significantly reduce the time it takes for a TaskRun to start, especially when using multiple remote StepActions.

• ✨ Do not fail PipelineRun if pvc creation error is because of exceeded quotas (Do not fail PipelineRun if pvc creation error is because of exceeded quotas #8903)

PipelineRun do not fail anymore if the pvc creation is due to an exceeded quota ; it will be requeued instead (until quota is available or it times out)

• ✨ feat: override task timeouts in pipelineruns (feat: override task timeouts in pipelineruns #8636)

feature: PipelineRun can now override individual task timeouts with spec.taskRunSpecs[].timeout

Fixes

• 🐛 check for the kubernetes sidecar implementation (check initContainers for the kubernetes sidecar implementation #8986)

Updated the sidecar implementation to check the completion status of initContainers before marking the taskRun complete.

• 🐛 fix: exclude pending PipelineRuns from metric (fix: exclude pending PipelineRuns from tekton_pipelines_controller_running_pipelineruns metric #8951)

Fixed tekton_pipelines_controller_running_pipelineruns metric to exclude pending PipelineRuns, it now counts only running PipelineRuns

• 🐛 Fix tini-git image to be multi-arch (Fix tini-git image to be multi-arch #8944)

Updating tini-git base image to be multi-platform, also fixing the resolvers image.

• 🐛 fix(Regression: gitToken and gitTokenKey not working with git resolver #8940): token-authentication header typo in git resolver (fix(#8940): token-authentication header typo in git resolver #8937)

Bug fix: Before this change, there was a regression in which the git resolver was not authenticating with the provided gitToken and gitTokenKey, breaking the git resolver's http token-based auth. After this change, all git operations performed by the git resolver use the provided gitToken for remote authentication.

• 🐛 fix: allow finalizer updates on completed TaskRun and PipelineRuns (fix: allow finalizer updates on completed TaskRun and PipelineRuns #9011)
• 🐛 fix nightly-build workflow to use kind setup action from allowed list (fix nightly-build workflow to use kind setup action from allowed list #8939)
