Argo CD cuts 3.6.0 on the release branch and ships its first patch within a day

gitopskubernetesstable-releasepatch-releasesdex-sso
◆Current state
Argo CD has moved 3.6 out of candidates: the release branch was bumped to 3.6.0 on 3 November and a 3.6.1 patch followed the next day with a cherry-picked UI sidebar fix. The rc3 and rc4 candidates before it carried fixes for repo-server goroutine leaks, SOCKS5 SSH fetching, sharding and server-side diff, plus one new option for Dex TLS cipher suites.
◆Where it's heading
The 3.6 line is now in stable maintenance, so the next weeks should be small cherry-picked patches rather than features. The 3.5 cycle followed the same shape, with feature work concentrated in rc1 and later candidates limited to fixes.
◆Prediction
Expect further 3.6.x patches with backported fixes; the entries do not yet show when a 3.7 candidate will start.

    Argo CD 3.6.0-rc3: Dex TLS options and repo-server fixes

    rc3 is cherry-picked fixes, a repo-server goroutine leak and gRPC SRV lookups among them, with one addition: configurable Dex TLS cipher suites. Typical late-candidate content.

    Argo CD 3.6.0-rc4: SOCKS5, diff and sharding fixes

    rc4 is fixes only, restoring SSH fetches through a SOCKS5 proxy and correcting server-side diff and sharding behaviour, plus a Go toolchain bump. It reads like the last candidate before stable.
