Here’s the docker, helm, and environment setup:

• Docker images for both integration and release branches
• an umbrella helm chart for all of our microservices
• dev, test, and prod environments

For dev, I only want to deploy integration images, and for test/prod, I only want to deploy release images. The correct tag for the Docker image will be contained in its corresponding sub-chart. If I am trying to automate deployments into each environment using ArgoCD, how do I version my Helm charts?

A couple ideas I’ve come up with:

1. Maintain the dev environment as a manual set up where developers increment the images through Argo manifests
2. Maintain an dev version and a prod version of the umbrella chart
   a. dev – 0.0.1
   b. prod – 1.0.0

How do others handle this scenario?
