When a user clicked “Go back” from the flow to create a project with CircleCI’s GitHub App or GitLab integrations, the web app would not redirect the user back to the previous page that they were on. This has now been fixed.

Container Runner:

• Support the user key in the docker executor configuration. This allows you to execute task-agent with a different user than the image’s default. Due to limitations of the Kubernetes API, this feature has some caveats:
  • This key is only supported on the primary container. Service containers will continue to run as the default user.
  • Some user environment variables, such as $PATH, may be reset.
• Further reduction in the memory footprint of Container Runner. This includes a fix for a memory leak that could cause the container-agent Pod to use excess memory and unexpectedly crash under certain workloads.
• Fix for a bug that caused tokens for private AWS ECR images to be cached beyond their expiry, potentially causing image pull errors.

Both Machine and Container Runner:

• Optimize the download and storage caching of new task agent versions.
