Description

I made a similar post here but then realized that the request may be better suited for the @semantic-release/git plugin instead.

Is it possible to have semantic-release also update the version field within my app's Helm Chart.yaml file alongside the other files? Or is this something that is better suited to be in its own plugin (e.g. @semantic-release/helm dedicated to updating Helm charts) ?

Research direction

Start by reviewing how @semantic-release/git handles package.json and other release files, then compare that with the app's Helm Chart.yaml version field. Determine whether semantic-release can support this directly or whether a dedicated Helm plugin is needed. Done means the chosen approach reliably synchronizes Chart.yaml with package.json during release.
