Hello, and welcome to this week’s changelog update! Let’s jump into what’s new:

  1. Exclude files to trigger Deployments with .koyebignore

    You can now include a .koyebignore file in your Git repository to specify files and directories that should not trigger a new deployment. For instance, if you add tests/ and README.md to the .koyebignore file, changes performed in the tests directory and to the README.md file will not trigger a new deployment.

  2. Add Instance replica index

    A new Koyeb variable, KOYEB_REPLICA_INDEX, is now available on every Instance to easily identify the replica index to which an Instance is assigned. This is particularly useful for identifying an Instance that plays a leader role and completes specific tasks in a distributed system architecture.
