Feb 1, 2026

February 2026 monthly highlights for codefresh-io/gitops-runtime-helm: Fixed dashboard integrity to prevent creation or referencing of non-existent parent git-source applications, addressing invalid application hierarchy. Updated event reporting behavior so parentAppId is not sent when the parent doesn't exist, and updated cf-argocd-extras image to b8c4451 to support the change. This work improves dashboard accuracy and reduces risk of phantom environments in the platform dashboards. Reference commit 349e94fbf45822365cc58d9afd74ed38060faf2c which includes: "feat: deleted git-source appears in application dashboard" and notes updating the cf-argocd-extras image to b8c4451 to align with the new event-reporter behavior.
