Since helm-diff has added an ability to auto-detect the term to decide if it should output with color or not, helmfile had been defaulted to no-color.
This resoloves that, by adding a term-detection logic that is same as helm-diff.
As a part of this work, I have also implemented a new global flag `--color`, which is used for forcing color without relying on the term-detection logic implemented in helmfile or explicitly setting the HELM_DIFF_COLOR envvar. I hope it is useful for folks.

When chartify is involved due to the use of `forceNamespace`, `strategicMergePatches`, `jsonPatches`, and so on, We had been internally mutating the Release.Chart with the path to the local temporary directory that contains the modified version of the chart.
This resulted in us unintentionally making `helmfile deps` to remove entries for the chart being modified out of helmfile.lock file, which resulted in issues like #2110.
To be clear, although the original issue is reported to occur for `strategicMergePatches`, I believe that it occurered also for any remote charts using `jsonPatches` and `forceNamespace` too.
I also believe this has been the issue since our introduction of chartify (maybe a year or so ago??), and I guess why it took so much time to be found and reported is that not so many people with chartify in combination with `helmfile deps` 🤔
Lastly, this changes chart names surfaced in the various log output from Helmfile, from temporary chart paths to the chart name/path declared in the helmfile.yaml. I think this is generally a good change, no fear of being a breaking change. But if anyone has any concern about that, please feel free to comment/report/etc.

This adds support for `kube-version` and `api-versions` to be available to `chartify` so that it works even if your release requires `chartify` due to that you use features like `forceNamespace`, `jsonPatches`, `strategicMergePatches`, and so on.
This also enhances `ReleaseSpec` which corresponds to each item of `releases[]` in your `helmfile.yaml` to also accept `kubeVersion` and `apiVersions`, in addition to the top-level `kubeVersion` and `apiVersions` we have today.
The top-level ones works as the default values for release-specific ones. If you have been using the top-level ones, keep using it. It is backward-compatible. If you want to specify it per release, because, for example, your releases are deployed across clusters(in case you differentiate `kubeContext` fields), try the new fields added to the release spec.
Resolves#1864
Use the value of the `condition` field instead of the `installed` field of a release in the `enabled` column of helmfile list.
The value of the `installed` field is shown in a new `installed` column.
Fixes#1920

Parses a new field in repositories named `skipTLSVerify` and if set to `true`, it appends `--insecure-skip-tls-verify` in `helm repo add` command.
This should be useful with internal self-signed repos, mitm proxies etc.
Resolves#1871
* Do fail on a possible typo in `needs` entries
Helmfile kindly fails with a friendly error when you made a typo in a `needs` entry, i.e. a `needs` entry included a reference to a release that is not defined in the helmfile config.
Example Output:
```
in ./helmfile.needs.yaml: release(s) "app" depend(s) on an undefined release "infrastructure/cert-manager2". Perhaps you made a typo in `needs` or forgot defining a release named "cert-manager2" with appropriate `namespace` and `kubeContext`?
```
This prevents issues like #1959
* Fix regression in helmfile-diff (This may break when you had two or more duplicated releases that are intended to be de-duplicated before DAG calculation using selectors
* Fix regression when you used selector to deduplicate releases before DAG calculation
* Comments
* Fix regressions in helmfile-apply and helmfile-sync
* Fix regression in duplicate release detection
Apparently we needed to pass `--validate` on helm-template run by chartify when the targeted chart contains Capabilities.APIVersions in a chart template. Otherwise, you can never make such chart work with chartify, as at apply time helm template expressions that involved Capabilities.APIVersions are already nowhere.
This adds the ability to include the --pass-credentials flag to the helm add repo command by:
- Adding repo.passCredentials to the helmfile yaml
- Changing state, helmexec, and app to include RepositorySpec.PassCredentials

#1772 broke `--selector` with `needs` in many ways.
The two biggest problems I've encountered were:
- duplicate releases even if you've provided a proper `selector` to deduplicate
- sync/deletion ordering broken when you have `needs`
For the first issue, we had to update `getSelectedReleases` function to also calculate the "selected releases and releases needed by the selected releases", and use that to calculate the DAG. That should have been done in #1772.
The latter started happening after I've fixed the first issue. The source of the issue was that `needs` turned out to be ambiguous in a few cases.
Previously, `needs: ["foo/bar"]` had two meanings. One for "needs release bar in kubecontext foo", another for "needs release bar in namespace foo".
Moreover, `needs: ["foo/bar/baz"]` had three meanings.
- `needs release baz in tiller namespace foo and namespace baz`
- `needs release baz in namespace bar in kubecontext foo`
- `needs release baz in tiller namespace bar in kubecontext foo`.
Especially, the first meaning doesn't make sense at all. Helm 2 solely use tillerNamespace for namespacing the release and Helm 3 uses namespace for that.
This fix sorts all the bugs and issues I've found so far around that, by changing the meanings of the above two examples as follows:
- `foo/bar` means `namespace=foo,name=bar` for Helm 3 and `tillerNamespace=foo,name=bar` for Helm 2
- `needs release bar in kubecontext foo` is now `foo//bar`. Notice the extra `/` between `foo` and `bar`.
- `foo/bar/baz` means `kubecontext=foo,namespace=bar,name=baz` for Helm 3 and `kubecontext=foo,tillerNamespace=bar,name=baz` in Helm 2

This is not what had been requested originally in #809 but anyway- This enables you to limit helm-dep-up run by helmfile-deps by selector. For example, `helmfile -l name=foo deps` should result in only the release named `foo` to be helm-dep-uped.
Related to #494
This feature is mostly a built-in alternative to the `incubator/raw` chart without external dependency and has
access to helmfile's own template functions and template data.
The expected use-case of this feature is to add arbitrary K8s resources to your deployment.
Unlike the original issue raised in #494 this doesn't enable you to add arbitary resources to a release. That's another story. But this would be a good foundation for that, too.
Secret files ending with .gotmpl are now also rendered as a gotemplate.
```
releases:
- name: myapp
secrets:
- secrets.yaml.gotmpl
```
Note that currently, .gotmpl files must be valid YAML files as well.
The expected use-case of this feature is to compose a YAML array from values and encrypted secrets.
Without this feature, you would have tried to do something like the below, which didn't work.
**Example (doesn't work!)**
`values.yaml.gotmpl`:
```
environment:
- name: MY_EXTERNAL_IP
value: |
{{ exec "./get-external-ip.sh" (list "") }}
```
`secrets.yaml`:
```
_sops:
#...
environment:
- name: MY_SECRET_VALUE
value: (encrypted by sops)
```
`helmfile.yaml`:
```
releases:
- name: foo
values:
- values.yaml
secrets:
- secrets.yaml
```
This doesn't work because `values.yaml` and the decrypted `secrets.yaml` are passed to `helm` to be merged, and helm overrides the array instead of merging or concatenating the arrays.
**Example (works!)**
Instead of `values.yaml` and `secrets.yaml`, you provide a single `secrets.yaml.gotmpl` that is a valid YAML and encrypted by sops:
```
_sops:
#...
environment:
- name: MY_EXTERNAL_IP
value: |
{{ exec "./get-external-ip.sh" (list "") }}
- name: MY_SECRET_VALUE
value: (encrypted by sops)
```
`helmfile.yaml`:
```
releases:
- name: foo
secrets:
- secrets.yaml.gotmpl
```
Helmfile decrypts the gotmpl by handing it over to helm-secrets and then renders the result as a gotmpl file. The end result is that you have a two-element array `environments` that can be just passed to helm.

Adds `--chart` flag for overriding the selected release's chart ad-hoc-ly like `helmfile --chart $CHART template`.
This is handy when e.g. you want to have an ArgoCD application per each release in your helmfile.yaml, while also providing the ability to customize the release's chart without touching helmfile.yaml.
See https://github.com/roboll/helmfile/issues/1690#issuecomment-812321354 for more context.
Closes#1690
* Fix OCI support
I have seen various issues related to the OCI repository support recently added to Helmfile.
This is the patch that should fix all the issues Im aware of until now.
This finishes the work started at #1619 by introducing the following changes:
- You can now set `HELMFILE_TEMPDIR` and `CHARTIFY_TEMPDIR` as the directory to persist temporary values files rendered by helmfile and temporary charts generated by chartify. Note that chartify is used internally when you use kustomize integration or raw K8s manifests as a chart.
- Helmfile uses the hash sum of the release config and the values file content in the file name of the temporary values file.
In combination with `HELMFILE_TEMPDIR` and `CHARTIFY_TEMPDIR`, this enables helmfile to use the stable file names for temporary values files, which contribute to stabilize log messages like `Comparing release=appset, chart=PATH/TO/TEMPORARY/CHART`, where the `PATH/TO/TEMPORARY/CHART` had been randomized due to formerly random helmfile tempdir and temporary values file names, and random chartify tempdir.
You can try this feature with a script like:
```
tempdir=$(mktemp -d -t helmfile)
HELMFILE_TEMPDIR=${tempdir} CHARTIFY_TEMPDIR=${tempdir} helmfile diff
rm -rf ${tempdir}
```
`helmfile-diff` sorts multiple and concurrent helm-diff outputs and stabilizes writes to stdout.
It's required to use the stdout from helmfile-diff to detect if there was another change(s) between 2 points in time.
For example, terraform-provider-helmfile runs a helmfile-diff on `terraform plan` and another on `terraform apply`. `terraform`, by design, fails when helmfile-diff outputs were not equivalent. Stabilized helmfile-diff output rescues that.
This improves helmfile-apply with two things:
- Some users had timing-out issues or annoyed by huge output from helm-diff run as part of helmfile-apply on first install. `--skip-diff-on-install` skips running helm-diff for releases being newly installed, so that you can avoid those issues.
- Some users had difficultly or found it not straight-forward to install CRDs and custom resources from separate charts in one helmfile-apply (#1353). The new helmfile.yaml release field `disableValidationOnInstall: true` adds `--disable-validation` to helm-diff only for releases being newly released, which should mostly resolve the issue.
Resolves#1353
Please see the updated `advanced-features.md` for more details.
This is often used for adding common labels and annotations to any resources rendered from a Helm chart.
This deprecates the old `--retain-values` which was not working as intended.
Also see #1570 - there's now `--skip-cleanup` for `helmfile-template`, too.
This allows you to use helmfile-template output as a GitOps source, when the template output contains CRDs and you use Helm 3.
Helm 3 by default removes CRDs from the template output. If you want to git-commit helmfile-template containing CRDs for GitOps and you use Helm 3 for templating, the only way is provide this newly added `--include-crds` flag.
`helm dep up` is now skipped while running helm-x/chartify when the chart/directory is obtained by running go-getter, or `skipDeps` is configured using a command-line flag, helmDefaults, or release configuration.
Resolves#1547
Adds a basic support for Helm repositories hosted on Azure Container Registry (not OCI but classic ones). Add a new field to RepositorySpec to state that is externally managed and runs the `az-cli` command instead of the helm one to manage the repository.
* Parse and process helm version using github.com/Masterminds/semver/v3.
* Add --force-update only when Helm version >= 3.3.2, < 3.3.4.
See: https://github.com/helm/helm/pull/8777.
* Add test cases.
* Bump sprig to v3.1.0
test for mergeOverwrite
* Let mergo not (accidentally) try to merge unexported fields
This is also a good chance separate `HelmState` with the config loaded from YAML, which I had been wanting to do for a long time.

This is an experimental feature to support a potential use-case that you need to set namespaces in manifests rendered by `helmfile template`, WHEN the chart is unconventional hence does not have `namespace: {{ .Namespace }}`.
Rather than using this, you should usually fork/maintain or update/pull-request the chart to have `namespace: {{ .Namespace }}`.
Use this only when you CAN NOT do so, but still need to use `helmfile template`.
This adds `comonLabels` option to helmfile by:
- Adding `CommonLabels` to HelmState
- Changing `markExcludedReleases` and `ListReleases` functions to merge common labels into release labels
Resolves#1266
This fixes the regression introduced by #1406 that resulted in `helmfile template` with helm v2 failing when there is any release with `version`.
Fixes#1414
This reverts a part of #1383 so that repository updates are done in the pre-0.125.0 way, which tries to update any repositories only once regardless of they are referenced by selected releases or not.
