If you're like me, you probably need to update your image tag to this new major version. I'll probably wait for a minor release first.

Amy Idea why there isn't a ":latest" release?

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 16 points 2 months ago

Because you usually don't want to do automatic upgrades across major versions. There is a "latest" equivalent for each major version release though.

It might be OK now, but for a while there before they hard forked, you set yourself up for issues if you updated majors without being aware of breaking changes.

Forgejo was initially a soft fork of Gitea but they knew it would very possibly become a hard fork. Using the latest tag meant your setup could break unexpectedly so I think they’d opted to not use it at all. What you want to do is use the full version “15” in this case which will keep it updated up the currently major release.
