Actions Runner Controller 0.15.0
gha-runner-scale-set-0.15.0
++++~----*********
Actions Runner Controller released gha-runner-scale-set 0.15.0 with 79 changes, including removal of legacy e2e tests and several unused APIs and printer columns. New flags add default and per-controller max-concurrent-reconciles settings, and terminationGracePeriodSeconds is now configurable. The release also includes many fixes to listener pod patching, RBAC permissions, and scale-set drift detection.
What changes for platform teams
Platform teams running self-hosted GitHub Actions runners on Kubernetes should review the removed status-field printer columns and the new reconcile concurrency and termination grace period settings before upgrading. Runner status is now reported through metrics rather than status fields, so dashboards or scripts that read those fields will need updating.
