K3S newbie question: How do I force a running Pod or Deployment to pick up a new Image?
Pipe your manifest through https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/carvel-kbld before deploying. It will resolve the image tags to digests.

How do you update your repos for ArgoCD?
you can also use a tool such as kbld which is capable of taking yaml that has a floating tag or specifier, building your image, pushing it to a registry, and then emitting the same yaml but with the floating tag locked down into a SHA.

(question) Getting Kubernetes to update deployment & understanding imagePullPolicy: Always
We use https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/carvel-kbld do workaround this issue. You can just pass your deployment.yaml to kbld and it will rewrite all image tags to their corresponding resolved digests. You can than pipe the result to kubectl apply or your deployment tool of choice (we use Kapp from the same developers as kbld).

How do you manage your updates?
From purely a container standpoint, for my home Kubernetes cluster, I use ArgoCD for deployment and wrote a little plugin to pipe the final manifests (generated through helm, kustomize, static files, whatever) through kbld. kbld replaces the image tag with the digest sha, which means ArgoCD sees it as a change to the manifest, and with auto-sync turned on deploys the latest image automatically. I've had my Argo applications configured this way for over a year with basically no issues.

How do you guys manage your deployment pipelines?
Flux for Kubernetes and we have installed Keel to let devs restart deployments on Development cluster. We don't use Webhooks but just have them do Powershell request to endpoint either in their pipeline or manually depending on dev teams desire.

Is there a CD solution that can be (painlessly) fully automated between stages?
Have you seen keel? https://github.com/keel-hq/keel I'm using it on very small projects with very simple delivery logic, so I'm not sure if it's gonna work out in your case, you can give it a try though.

Is it possible that k8s updates image version on pod relaunch?
I've used Keel and more recently ArgoCD Image Updater (Using ArgoCD to manage deployments).
What are some alternatives?
