Release Cadence

Once a new version of Xcode is released, we will initiate a GitHub release which will automatically build and push a new version of the macos-sequoia-xcode:N. This generally happens the next weekend after a release. Please watch this repository releases to get notified about new images.

Update Cadence

Some of the images are regularly getting rebuild in order to update the pre-installed packages.

This configuration file defines images that are getting rebuilt monthly on the first Saturday of the month.
