Is it possible to edit a server group in spinnaker?

I'm experimenting with spinnaker but am finding I often need to edit a server group after creating it. However, it's not clear how to do this from the UI.

Is it possible to edit an existing server group using Spinnaker?

Spinnaker heavily relies on the "immutable infrastructure" approach, meaning infrastructure & artifact definitions should not be changed once they're created. Here's a nice slide deck providing some rational.

As a result, you need to create a new server group when you want to apply changes to it. You can do this via a "Clone" operation, shown below:

An even more robust solution would be to codify the definition of your server group in the pipeline that deploys it, and to only make changes to the definition there - rerunning the deployment pipeline when you want to make changes.
