Keptn 0.7.1

Keptn 0.7.1 improves the capabilities of the 0.7.0 release by adding more flexibility to the tasks of installing/operating Keptn, introducing three new CLI commands and improving the UX in the Keptn Bridge. Especially the new feature of installing Keptn in different namespaces is a door opener for various use-cases since multiple Keptn deployments, e.g., one for each team, can be operated on one cluster.

The key announcements of Keptn 0.7.1:

🌟 More flexibility in installing/operating Keptn:

• keptn install --namespace: Allows you to specify the namespace to install Keptn in.
• keptn upgrade: Instead of manually executing a K8s job as done by the previous upgrade processes, this CLI command performs the upgrade.
• Set root context: As part of the installation Helm Chart of Keptn, a root context can be specified that allows you to customize the prefix of the API and Bridge endpoint of Keptn.

🚀 New CLI commands:

• keptn delete service: This command will delete a service from a project and undeploy the service from the cluster.
• keptn get events: This command is a generic implementation to retrieve Keptn events of any event type.

✨ UX improvements in environment screen: Based on feedback on the features of the Keptn delivery assistant, improvements regarding the user experience of the Keptn Bridge has been implemented.

🎉 Keptn on OpenShift 4: Thanks to the work of @marcredhat, Keptn has been successfully tested on an OpenShift 4 cluster. Two assets of this task are provided here: (1) Docu for Automated install of OpenShift 4.5 and Keptn and (2) YouTube - Deploy to OpenShift 4.5 / Service Mesh using Keptn.

Additional note: Added documentation of GOVERNANCE & SECURITY process
