**Tell us about your request**
Can you enable support for `RollingSync` ApplicationSet update strategy?: https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/applicationset/Progressive-Syncs/#rollingsync

**Which service(s) is this request for?**
EKS Capabilities

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**
It is best described in the ArgoCD docs: https://argo-cd.readthedocs.io/en/stable/operator-manual/applicationset/Progressive-Syncs/#rollingsync
but in general I would like to limit blast radius of change being rolled out and this looks like a native feature for it. As far as I understood it would only move to a next cluster/env ApplicationSet generation/update if the first defined env updated and resources reported healthy status (this combined with Argo Rollouts could even allow building a self-promotion cross env/cluster pipeline?)

**Are you currently working around this issue?**

Research direction

Start with the linked ArgoCD RollingSync documentation and the EKS Capabilities context in this issue. The payload names no repository files, tests, or implementation entry points, so first determine where EKS Capabilities configures ApplicationSet update strategies. Done means RollingSync support is enabled for the requested capability and its behavior is verified.
