Nov 1, 2024

Month: 2024-11 — Summary focusing on CI/CD reliability improvements for island.is. Implemented Buildx image availability enhancement to ensure the image exists in the repository before pulling; when missing, the system pulls from a local registry or Docker Hub, tags, and pushes to the local registry to maintain self-healing builds. This reduces CI build failures and speeds up Docker-based steps. The changes align with commit 6f34424e15ef853d4cd31ef07b4a40bd884cfa6a (#16827).
