Helm's `dependency build` on the parent chart fetches each file:// subchart and packages it as .tgz, but does NOT recursively build the subchart's own dependencies first. For envelope charts whose subcharts declare their own local file:// dependencies, the resulting .tgz lacks the nested subchart's resources. chartify's `helm template` then silently drops those resources, and strategicMergePatches/jsonPatches targeting them fail with "no resource matches". Fix: add `preBuildTransitiveSubchartDeps`, called from processChartification before chartify runs (gated on !skipDeps). It walks the transitive file:// dependency tree depth-first and runs `helm dependency build` bottom-up on each subchart source directory, so each subchart's deps are pre-built before the parent packages them. The function is best-effort: errors are logged at debug level and do not abort the operation, matching helmfile's existing behavior of tolerating already-built deps. Verified with a reproduction case that fails before the fix (`Error: no resource matches strategic merge patch ".../nested-sm.[noNs]"`) and passes after it.
