As they require that all dependencies are also published, I suspect we'll want a little helm publishing script that gets rid of requirements.* and moves the partials chart templates in here as a helper eventually.

I was gonna say we push linkerd2/charts/partials-0.1.0.tgz that we're already generating with bin/helm-build, but I've searched through all Helm stable charts and nobody does that 😊
So yeah, we can just explode that tarball, manually at first and then through some script.

The Helm incubator repo is kind of deprecated and should not be used anymore for new charts. See: helm/charts#13869 (comment)

It's even questionsnable to use the stable repo as the helm devs suggest to use own Helm repos. See: helm/charts#5071 (comment)

Own Helm repos can be created easily on Github pages, so you wont even need own infrastructure for hosting it. You could use an official Helm tool for that: https://github.com/helm/chart-releaser

[alpeb]

Thanks for the feedback @monotek! We'll consider that and report back.

The last push adds the option [-stable | -edge] to bin/helm-build which generates the index.yaml and the helm chart tarball that we'll serve in the website in the repos https://run.linkerd.io/stable and https://run.linkerd.io/edge as per linkerd/website#502

Given that we are creating our own repo (#3365), are these changes still necessary?

Actually this PR has morphed into the changes to be done for supporting our own repo. You can see more details at linkerd/website#502

Thanks for the updates. I think we should merge this, regardless of the status of the incubator PR, as these changes are relevant to our chart in general.
