Aug 1, 2025Monthly summary for 2025-08 (appgate/sdpctl): Upgrade Process Improvements implemented to enhance reliability and efficiency of the upgrade pathway. Key changes include clearer error messaging when no upgrade is available and optimized batch processing to avoid empty batches, reducing wasted work and user confusion. Delivered through three coordinated commits: 1c24043b9cacdd9332de1f0ad5a16f1d57eae897 (make message less error-like), 3a341672b1abeacd4d05ff7471b5afd517e585f4 (fix test), and 005f5e6799ecaee2ff5d180decd231cdf7069cc0 (calculate batches better and avoid empty batches). This work improves upgrade reliability, reduces support overhead, and demonstrates a strong focus on quality and maintainability.
