-  --atomic \
-  --timeout 10m \
-  --wait
-
-# Upgrade with cleanup on failure
-helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
-  --namespace production \
-  --cleanup-on-fail
-
-# Force resource update (recreate)
-helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
-  --namespace production \
-  --force
-
-# Dry run before upgrade
-helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
-  --namespace production \
-  --dry-run \
-  --debug
-
-# Compare current vs new
-helm get manifest myapp -n production > current.yaml
-helm template myapp ./mychart -f values-prod.yaml > new.yaml
-diff current.yaml new.yaml
-
-# Rollback to specific revision
-helm rollback myapp 3 --namespace production
-
-# Rollback with wait
-helm rollback myapp 3 --namespace production --wait --timeout 5m

-## Library Charts
-
-```yaml
-# Chart.yaml for library chart
-apiVersion: v2
-name: mylib
-type: library
-version: 1.0.0
-```
-
-```yaml
-# templates/_deployment.tpl in library
-{{- define "mylib.deployment" -}}
-apiVersion: apps/v1
-kind: Deployment
-metadata:
-  name: {{ include "mylib.fullname" . }}
-  labels:
-    {{- include "mylib.labels" . | nindent 4 }}
-spec:
-  replicas: {{ .Values.replicaCount }}
-  selector:

-          image: "{{ .Values.image.repository }}:{{ .Values.image.tag }}"
-{{- end }}

-```yaml
-# Using library chart

-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Versioning**: Follow semantic versioning for charts
-2. **Values**: Provide sensible defaults, allow overrides
-3. **Documentation**: Document all values in README
-4. **Testing**: Include tests in templates/tests/
-5. **Helpers**: Use _helpers.tpl for reusable templates
-6. **Labels**: Include standard Kubernetes labels
-7. **Annotations**: Use annotations for metadata and tools
-8. **Hooks**: Use hooks for migrations, cleanup
-9. **Dependencies**: Pin dependency versions
-10. **Schema**: Validate values with values.schema.json
-11. **Use ct** for comprehensive chart testing in CI
-12. **Use helm-diff** before production upgrades
-13. **Encrypt secrets** with helm-secrets or sealed-secrets
-14. **Use library charts** for shared patterns
-15. **Push to OCI registries** for better artifact management

+## Chart Repository
+
+### Create Repository
+
+```bash
+# Package chart
+helm package mychart/ --version 1.2.0 --destination ./repo
+
+# Generate index
+helm repo index ./repo --url https://charts.example.com
+
+# Update index with new chart
+helm repo index ./repo --url https://charts.example.com --merge ./repo/index.yaml
+```
+
+### GitHub Pages Repository

+
+### OCI Registry
+
+```bash
+# Login to registry
+helm registry login myregistry.io -u user -p token
+
+# Push chart to OCI registry
+helm push mychart-1.2.0.tgz oci://myregistry.io/charts

+```
+
+## Helm Plugins
+
+```bash
+# helm-diff - preview upgrades
+helm plugin install https://github.com/databus23/helm-diff
+helm diff upgrade myapp ./mychart -f values-prod.yaml
+
+# helm-secrets - manage encrypted secrets
+helm plugin install https://github.com/jkroepke/helm-secrets

+
+## Complex Upgrade/Rollback
+
+```bash
+# Upgrade with atomic (rollback on failure)
+helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
+  --namespace production \
+  --atomic \
+  --timeout 10m \
+  --wait
+
+# Upgrade with cleanup on failure
+helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
+  --namespace production \
+  --cleanup-on-fail
+
+# Force resource update (recreate)
+helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
+  --namespace production \
+  --force
+
+# Dry run before upgrade
+helm upgrade myapp ./mychart \
+  --namespace production \
+  --dry-run \
+  --debug
+
+# Compare current vs new
+helm get manifest myapp -n production > current.yaml
+helm template myapp ./mychart -f values-prod.yaml > new.yaml
+diff current.yaml new.yaml
+
+# Rollback to specific revision
+helm rollback myapp 3 --namespace production
+
+# Rollback with wait
+helm rollback myapp 3 --namespace production --wait --timeout 5m
+
+# View revision history
+helm history myapp --namespace production
+```
+
+## Library Charts
+
+```yaml
+# Chart.yaml for library chart
+apiVersion: v2
+name: mylib
+type: library
+version: 1.0.0
+```
+
+```yaml
+# templates/_deployment.tpl in library
+{{- define "mylib.deployment" -}}
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+  name: {{ include "mylib.fullname" . }}
+  labels:
+    {{- include "mylib.labels" . | nindent 4 }}
+spec:
+  replicas: {{ .Values.replicaCount }}
+  selector:
+    matchLabels:
+      {{- include "mylib.selectorLabels" . | nindent 6 }}
+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        {{- include "mylib.selectorLabels" . | nindent 8 }}
+    spec:
+      containers:
+        - name: {{ .Chart.Name }}
+          image: "{{ .Values.image.repository }}:{{ .Values.image.tag }}"
+{{- end }}
+```
+
+```yaml
+# Using library chart
+# Chart.yaml
+dependencies:
+  - name: mylib
+    version: "1.x.x"
+    repository: https://charts.example.com
+
+# templates/deployment.yaml
+{{- include "mylib.deployment" . }}
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Versioning**: Follow semantic versioning for charts
+2. **Values**: Provide sensible defaults, allow overrides
+3. **Documentation**: Document all values in README
+4. **Testing**: Include tests in templates/tests/
+5. **Helpers**: Use _helpers.tpl for reusable templates
+6. **Labels**: Include standard Kubernetes labels
+7. **Annotations**: Use annotations for metadata and tools
+8. **Hooks**: Use hooks for migrations, cleanup
+9. **Dependencies**: Pin dependency versions
+10. **Schema**: Validate values with values.schema.json
+11. **Use ct** for comprehensive chart testing in CI
+12. **Use helm-diff** before production upgrades
+13. **Encrypt secrets** with helm-secrets or sealed-secrets
+14. **Use library charts** for shared patterns
+15. **Push to OCI registries** for better artifact management
