Image automation controller

CII Best Practices report license release

This controller automates updates to YAML when new container images are available.

Its sibling, image-reflector-controller, scans container image repositories and reflects the metadata in Kubernetes resources. This controller reacts to that image metadata by updating YAML files in a git repository, and committing the changes.
