# ONLY THE NEWEST JAVA LINE IS MAINTAINED (chart 5.0.0, issue #158).
# appVersion is the image tag and therefore fixes the JVM. Up to chart 4.1.0 the
# chart was published once per line (java8 / java17 / java21 / java25) out of
# this single directory, which is what made the lines drift apart: whatever
# change landed while a line happened to lie in the directory reached that line
# only. That is over. This directory carries exactly one line - the newest -
# and it is the only one that gets chart changes.
# The older lines stay published as frozen artifacts and are still installable:
# java8 and java17 at 4.0.0, java21 at 4.1.0. They will not be updated again.
# To run an older JVM with the CURRENT chart, set image.tagOverride in values
# instead of installing a frozen chart version; the chart then checks that
# minecraft.version fits the line of that tag and fails the render if it does
# not.
# Since chart 2.0.0 the tag is a DATED upstream release ("<release>-java<N>")
# instead of the rolling line tag ("java<N>"): the rolling tags are rebuilt
# continuously, so a pod restart could pull a different image than the last one
# without anything being recorded anywhere. The dated tags are immutable, so the
# image is now pinned by the chart version like every other chart in this repo.
