Workflow justification for "No chart changes detected" fast end #49

Closed cep21 closed 2 years ago

cep21 commented 4 years ago

Hi,

I'm unsure why "No chart changes detected" fast stop is the best workflow. Can you talk about this more? We put our helm charts with our service code. Other people do that to (flux is one example: https://github.com/fluxcd/flux/tree/master/chart)

It makes sense to me to try starting and testing our helm chart on every PR. We may only modify the helm chart version infrequently, but we would want to know on each PR if the code will break the helm chart. I imagine this would be the desired workflow for most people. I'm maybe misunderstanding something about why this would be undesired or not want to be the default.

I imagine this is related to https://github.com/helm/chart-testing-action/issues/12
