#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.
