Good Morning Everyone,

So here are some of the changes that we have worked on this week:

* You can now override the os version field in the ostree commit in the
images using the `ostree_os_version` variable.

* The runvm script now supports the `--watchdog` argument, which implements
an external watchdog that survives across VM resets.

* There is a new image that demonstrates how the watchdog can be used to
implement unattended OSTree updates. See
https://sigs.centos.org/automotive/building/unattended_updates/ for docs
about this.

* There were various fixes to the grub configuration to support the above.

Happy hacking!

Alex
