      0๏ธโƒฃ increasing the default in-flight request limit to 100K pending requests
    • Have the proxy appropriately set content-type when synthesizing gRPC error
      responses
    • โฌ†๏ธ Bumped the proxy-init image to v1.3.8 which is based off of
      ๐Ÿ”’ buster-20201117-slim to reduce potential security vulnerabilities
    • No longer panic in rare cases when linkerd-config doesn't have an entry for
      Global configs (thanks @hodbn!)
    • ๐Ÿšง Work in progress: the /jaeger directory now contains the charts and commands
      for installing the tracing component.
