Gitness vs HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller: at a glance
What is Gitness?
Harness Open Source last shipped in August 2025, on this feed at least
The feed holds two releases of Harness Open Source, tracked here as Gitness. v3.2.0 in May 2025 added Git LFS, default reviewers through branch rules and a Revert PR option; v3.3.0 that August added tag rules, a PR dashboard upgrade with favourite repositories, and a fix for a Git LFS upload path flaw. Nothing newer appears here.
What is HAProxy Kubernetes Ingress Controller?
Nineteen patches into 3.2, HAProxy's ingress controller is mostly bumping dependencies
The controller remains on the 3.2 patch line. Since v3.2.14 the only release of substance is v3.2.15, which stopped filtering ingresses on IngressClass name at ingestion, reworked status publishing and moved to Go 1.27. Later patches are mainly dependency and tooling updates, with v3.2.18 keeping every TLS secret of an ingress on the same host and v3.2.19 fixing a data race on the reload flag.

◆ Current state
The feed holds two releases of Harness Open Source, tracked here as Gitness. v3.2.0 in May 2025 added Git LFS, default reviewers through branch rules and a Revert PR option; v3.3.0 that August added tag rules, a PR dashboard upgrade with favourite repositories, and a fix for a Git LFS upload path flaw. Nothing newer appears here.
◆ Where it's heading
Both releases deepen code-hosting governance: branch rules, then tag rules, plus review routing through Code Owners. That is parity work against established Git hosts rather than a new direction. With entries more than a year old, the feed shows where the project was heading in 2025, not where it is now.
◆ Prediction
The entries do not support a confident call: there is no release in this feed after v3.3.0, so it is unclear whether the project slowed or the feed stopped tracking it.

Nineteen patches into 3.2, HAProxy's ingress controller is mostly bumping dependencies
◆ Current state
The controller remains on the 3.2 patch line. Since v3.2.14 the only release of substance is v3.2.15, which stopped filtering ingresses on IngressClass name at ingestion, reworked status publishing and moved to Go 1.27. Later patches are mainly dependency and tooling updates, with v3.2.18 keeping every TLS secret of an ingress on the same host and v3.2.19 fixing a data race on the reload flag.
◆ Where it's heading
The ssl-passthrough theme has faded, and the series is now closer to routine upkeep than stabilization. Fixes have moved to ingress class handling, TLS secret storage and concurrency, with test coverage arriving in the same changes. Patches keep coming, but no new configuration surface has appeared on this line in the entries shown, apart from amending the SSL frontend through a custom resource in v3.2.15.
◆ Prediction
Expect further patches dominated by go.mod and Kubernetes client updates, with new capability waiting for a later line.
