Description

When standing up a new air-gapped OpenShift instance, several operators can be requested in one batch. When using an ImageSet config that does not specify the min version to match the newest version, the output from the mirror can easily exceed terabytes. It would be convenient if there was a toggle to auto select the most recent version as the min version either from the default channel or whichever channel the user has selected for all operators being requested.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the GUI handles ImageSet configuration and operator channel or minimum-version selection for oc-mirror v2. Check how the default and user-selected channels are represented. Done means a user can enable the behavior and the generated mirror configuration selects the newest version as the minimum for every requested operator, with appropriate coverage for both channel choices.
