Can helm support Kubernetes server side apply feature

[tonyaw]

May I ask if helm can support Kubernetes server side apply feature?
https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/server-side-apply/#transferring-ownership
Or helm always support client side apply feature?
Thanks in advance!

I thought this had an issue for it already but I can't find one.

Helm does not currently support server side apply. This would need to be an opt-in feature for Helm v3. We are open to it if someone wants to contribute.

Thanks! Any schedule for SSA support?

@tonyaw we don't have a schedule for it.

@mattfarina ,
Purpose that I asked for this SSA feature is to transfer owner of replicas field from helm to HPA without service degradation.
This is the suggestion from Kubernetes official website:
https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/using-api/server-side-apply/#transferring-ownership

Based on current helm's design for SSA, do you think helm can support this case after SSA is available?
