Generally available¶
GA images aren’t built from scratch but rather promoted from an existing release candidate. When we decide a release candidate has the acceptable quality and QA signs it off, the release candidate is promoted to become the GA release. This ensures that the GA image has exactly the same content and SHA as the tested release candidate.
