Push `-fips` container tags for CNG Images
FIPS(Federal Information Processing Standard) is a standard for the protection of sensitive or valuable data within Federal systems. GitLab is working towards becoming FIPS compliant as part of gitlab-org&6452 (closed) .
To make a system FIPS compliant, certain changes to the underlying SSL libraries are needed, Check this for more information.
To make FIPS compliant Cloud Native GitLab images, a new pipeline was introduced in CNG similar to UBI pipeline as part of gitlab-org/build/CNG!981 (merged) .
As per comments in gitlab-org/build/CNG!981 (comment 939087104) , I'm opening this issue to push -fips
container tag as part of the official releases.
