Notable Changes

  • Fixed a bug where --dry-run=server was not respecting generateName #31563

  • Fixed a Helm 4 regression where gotemplate white space trimming directly after YAML doc separators, when present after postrendering, caused YAML file corruption #31868
  • Fixed a bug where FailedStatus is treated as a terminal state, causing upgrades to fail prematurely when cluster autoscalers needed time to provision nodes, or when pods were being deleted during rolling updates #31897
  • Fixed broken backwards compatibility for deprecated --atomic flag on install command #31901
  • SDK: Fixed a Windows 'Access Deined' error if multiple processes try to download the same chart version concurrently #31128

  • SDK: Fixed a bug where server-side apply defaults did not always match the CLI defaults #31732
  • SDK: Fixed a Go import issue when downstream tooling attempted to vendor helm.sh/helm/v4/pkg/kube #31852
