v0.5.0

[tylerslaton]

🎈 Acorn v0.5.0 is available with many new features and improvements! 🎈

New features

• Specify memory for acorns with a variety of options. Learn more about usage here. Add resource request/constraint functionality (...for memory) #43

Enhancements of note

• You can now provide a custom certificate authority bundle for Acorn to trust at install time. This allows for the usage of custom registries instead of the one included with Acorn. Learn more about how here. Ability to provide a custom certificate authority bundle to the acorn control plane #1037
• Acorn installs now come with built-in roles for different users. Learn more about them here. Install generic cluster roles for acorn #1009

Known issues

• --namespace install flag has been hidden to reduce user confusion with the --project changes.
• There are some quality of life improvements around parsing memory that we will be shipping in future updates. Improve error message when invalid value is set for memory parameter in acorn file  #1085 When invalid value is passed to memory parameter for acorn run command, pods get deployed with only the numeric part of the memory string. #1086 When invalid value are set for workload-memory-default/workload-memory-maximum,they get set with only the numeric part of the string. #1091
