flux create image update

Create or update an ImageUpdateAutomation object

Synopsis

The create image update command generates an ImageUpdateAutomation resource. An ImageUpdateAutomation object specifies an automated update to images mentioned in YAMLs in a git repository.

⚠️ Please note that this command is in preview and under development. While we try our best to not introduce breaking changes, they may occur when we adapt to new features and/or find better ways to facilitate what it does.
