Plan

plan-2026-02-26-tf-modularize-postgres -- Phase 5 deployment blocker

Repo

forgejo_admin/pal-e-docs

User Story

As a platform operator
I want .argocd-source-* files excluded from the repo via .gitignore
So that ArgoCD Image Updater git write-back cannot create ghost overrides that block deployments

Context

ArgoCD Image Updater was configured with git write-back on pal-e-docs. Even after removing the Image Updater annotations from the ArgoCD Application resource, the .argocd-source-* parameter override files can persist in the repo and override the image tag specified in the Helm values. Adding this pattern to .gitignore ensures any existing or future .argocd-source-* files are ignored and cannot be committed.

This is a deployment blocker for Phase 5 (tsvector search) -- the Image Updater was reverting the image tag to an older build.

File Targets

Files the agent should modify or create:

.gitignore -- add k8s/.argocd-source-* pattern

Files the agent should NOT touch:

k8s/ -- Helm/ArgoCD manifests are not changed in this PR

Acceptance Criteria

.gitignore contains k8s/.argocd-source-*
No .argocd-source-* files are tracked in git

Test Expectations

git check-ignore k8s/.argocd-source-pal-e-docs.yaml returns a match
Run command: git check-ignore k8s/.argocd-source-pal-e-docs.yaml

Constraints

Append to existing .gitignore, do not rewrite it
Keep the change minimal -- one line addition

Checklist

Tests pass
No unrelated changes
