Why can pulling the same image tag produce different code later?
KitForma editorial guide. A tag is a movable name, not an immutable content identifier. Publishers can point the same tag to another image.
Step-by-step guidance
A tag is a movable name, not an immutable content identifier. Publishers can point the same tag to another image.
For reproducible deployment, record the resolved digest and deploy the reviewed image by an appropriate immutable reference. Keep a deliberate update process so pinning does not freeze security fixes forever. Test that the deployed digest matches the build artifact used in acceptance checks. Multi-platform images add a manifest selection layer, so record relevant platform information too. Do not describe a rebuild as identical merely because its human-readable tag is unchanged.
