Command-line tool for continuous development on Kubernetes

Skaffold 2.25 finally carries notes, and they are dependency bumps and a Go 1.27 upgrade.

kubernetes toolingbuild pipelinesdependency updatesmaintenance modego
◆Current state
Skaffold cut 2.19 through 2.25 between April and mid-September on a roughly monthly rhythm, after a short 2.18 patch series in March and April. Most entries are just install commands per platform. Version 2.25.0 on September 16 is the first in this window with a change list, and it is all maintenance: Go 1.27.1, containerd, gRPC, buildkit and go-git bumps, plus a docs announcement on the V2 and YAML reference pages.
◆Where it's heading
The monthly minors look like dependency hygiene rather than feature work, and the empty New Features and Fixes sections in 2.25 confirm it for that release. No entry has appeared since mid-September, which breaks the monthly rhythm the project held through the summer.
◆Prediction
If cadence resumes, expect a 2.26 with another round of Go and dependency updates; the feed gives no sign of feature work.

    Skaffold 2.25: Go 1.27.1 and dependency updates

    The first release in months whose notes list changes, and they confirm what the bare minors suggested: Go 1.27.1, gRPC, containerd and buildkit bumps, with empty feature and fix sections. A docs announcement was added to the V2 and YAML reference pages.
