Git tag -> image tag

Suppose my-chart has default values.yaml:

image:
  repository: registry.gitlab.local/example/app
  tag: v1.0.0
...

If we need to create CI/CD pipeline, we need use next script

helm upgrade --instal my-release my-chart-repo/my-chart-app --set="image.tag=$CI_COMMIT_TAG" -n my-namespace

HelmWave allows use declarative way to approach this goal.

This values will override default values
