Multiple entries in the images section with the same image value but different tags
Is your feature request related to a problem? We would like to use the same ECR repo for different images and differentiate them using a tag. It seems that devspace today doesn't allow that and instead, it throws the following error
[fatal] multiple image definitions with the same image name are not allowed
Example: version: v1beta9 images: a: image: xxxxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/test tags: - a-1.0 b: image: xxxxxxxxx.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/test tags: - b-1.0
Which solution do you suggest? A kind of option that enables to specify a default prefix tag option and concatenate the rest of the tag generated by devspace later
Which alternative solutions exist? Use different repos :)

@azagarelz thanks for reporting this issue! I understand the use case, however how would you reference these images in the deployment section, because this would lead to ambiguous behavior:
images:
default:
image: myusername/devspace
tags: ["a"]
default2:
image: myusername/devspace
tags: ["b"]
deployments:
- name: default
helm:
values:
containers:
- image: myusername/devspace # <- this is now ambiguous
Since we have now replacement helpers like tag() and image() for deployments, we could think about one that takes the config name of the image instead of the image name and replaces this, which then would work for your use case.
@FabianKramm having a helper that takes the image config name would be great!
Any updates on this? I'm in the same situation where I have a Dockerfile target to build and serve assets and another one with the application itself. Those are currently separated using tags.
If someone still needs a fix, you can rebuild the binary as I've described in another issue https://github.com/devspace-sh/devspace/issues/886#issuecomment-1804679336
