GitLab Cluster Management template uses outdated version (v2.1.0) instead of current version (v2.7.0)
Summary
When creating a new project on GitLab.com using the "GitLab Cluster Management" template, the project is created with an outdated version (v2.1.0) of the cluster-applications image. However, the official template repository shows that the current version should be v2.7.0.
Steps to reproduce
- Log in to GitLab.com
- Create a new project
- Select "Create from template"
- Choose "GitLab Cluster Management" template
- Complete project creation
Current behavior
The created project includes .gitlab-ci.yml with:
image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/cluster-applications:v2.1.0"Expected behavior
The created project should include .gitlab-ci.yml with the latest version from the official template repository:
image: "registry.gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cluster-integration/cluster-applications:v2.7.0"Evidence
The official template repository at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/project-templates/cluster-management/-/blob/main/.gitlab-ci.yml?ref_type=heads shows version v2.7.0 is current, but newly created projects using this template still use v2.1.0.
Additional context
This issue may affect other templates as well. It's important to ensure that all project templates use the most current versions to provide users with up-to-date functionality, security fixes, and compatibility with current Kubernetes versions.
