Packer - 1.9.0


(Unreleased)

NOTES:

  • Breaking Change: Iteration fingerprints used to be computed from the Git SHA of the
    repository where the template is located when running packer build. This
    changes with this release, and now fingerprints are automatically generated
    as a ULID. This implies that continuing an existing iteration will require
    users to define the fingerprint in the environment manually in order to
    adopt this behaviour, otherwise, by default, a new iteration will be
    created. This does not impact workflows where the fingerprint was defined
    through the HCP_PACKER_ITERATION_FINGERPRINT environment variable, and
    these builds will work exactly as they did before.
    GH-12172

IMPROVEMENTS:

  • core/hcp: Now, fingerprints used by HCP Packer are randomly generated ULIDs
    instead of a Git SHA, and a new one is always generated, unless one is
    already specified in the environment.
