buildpacks/pack v0.0.5

pack v0.0.5

on GitHub

The pack CLI now includes the ability to specify a local buildpack on pack build to shorten feedback loops when you are developing your own cloud native buildpacks. The local buildpack must be a directory, and the path to the buildpack must be specified with the --buildpack flag.

Additionally, you can now swap out your run image with a new version without rebuilding your entire application image using pack rebase. With pack rebase --publish, the rebasing happens entirely on the registry, without needing a local copy of the run image.
