Seeking clarification with GoCD Release Notes

[Cory McKelvey]

Does https://www.gocd.org/releases/ act as release notes for both gocd-server and gocd-agents?

[Chad Wilson]

Yeah, that's correct.

Any particular question you're trying to answer?

No particular question, just looking for agent changes and needed clarification for internal skeptics like me.

[Chad Wilson]

For almost all users, what they think of as the 'agent' (as installed) is actually just a bootstrapping process that downloads the 'real' agent code from the current server version, thus matching that server version's code.

So sometimes it depends what one means by 'agent changes'. In a general sense, almost all of the behaviour of an agent while running jobs is defined and packaged within the server and its plugins which is probably why it's not separated.

Thought so.
You rock, thank you!
