Notable changes:

Bugfixes

• Flow: Fixes slow reloading of targets in phlare.scrape component. (@cyriltovena)

• Flow: add a maximum connection lifetime of one hour when tailing logs from
  loki.source.kubernetes and loki.source.podlogs to recover from an issue
  where the Kubernetes API server stops responding with logs without closing
  the TCP connection. (@rfratto)

• Flow: fix issue in loki.source.kubernetes where __pod__uid__ meta label
  defaulted incorrectly to the container name, causing tailers to never
  restart. (@rfratto)

Kubernetes

Docker container:

agentctl, a tool for helping you interact with the Agent, is available as a Docker image:
