Flux OCIRepository: the GitOps that stopped using Git
Flux has shifted its GitOps approach from using Git as the primary source to utilizing OCI registries. This change allows for a more efficient and secure method of managing configurations by treating the registry as the source of truth. The move aims to simplify the process and enhance security by removing the complexities associated with Git authentication and history management.
- ▪Flux now uses OCI registries instead of Git for managing configurations.
- ▪The new approach eliminates the need for the cluster to pull from Git, reducing overhead.
- ▪By using content-addressed delivery, the exact configuration used in staging can be guaranteed to be the same in production.

That's the part everyone remembers, and it's the part Flux is quietly walking away from. The new default isn't Git.
