Summary of Changes

Hello @Camila-B, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request introduces a new automation script and integrates it into the Makefile to streamline the process of updating the Debian base image. This change is a foundational step towards achieving more comprehensive automation for image updates, reducing manual effort and ensuring the use of the latest stable base images.

Highlights

  • New Automation Script: Introduced scripts/update-debian-base-image.sh to automate the process of finding and updating the latest Debian base image tag (bookworm) in the Makefile.
  • Makefile Integration: Added a new make update-debian-base-image target to the Makefile, which executes the new automation script, simplifying the update process.
  • Improved Documentation: Updated the Makefile comments to guide users to the new make target for updating the Debian base image.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

Changelog
  • Makefile
    • Added a new update-debian-base-image target that executes the scripts/update-debian-base-image.sh script.
    • Included a comment guiding users to the new make target for updating the Debian base image.
  • scripts/update-debian-base-image.sh
    • New file added, containing a bash script that fetches the latest bookworm tag for gcr.io/gke-release/debian-base using gcloud.
    • The script compares the latest tag with the current tag in the Makefile and updates the DEBIAN_BASE_IMAGE variable if a newer version is found.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a script and a corresponding Makefile target to automate updating the Debian base image version. The script correctly identifies the latest tag and updates the Makefile. I've added a couple of suggestions to improve the script's robustness and adherence to shell scripting best practices.
