Following the Helm repo deprecation, migrate to new charts
Release notes
Users of GitLab Managed Apps behind the hood rely on various Helm charts. The central Helm repo is expected to be shut down on November 13. In preparation for this change, GitLab 13.6 relies on a GitLab managed Helm repo where we mirrored the charts needed for various GitLab features. These changes have been packported, and upgrading to previous patch versions might avoid breaking these services too. You can read more how to keep GitLab Auto DevOps and Managed Apps working after Helm stable repo is removed in our dedicated post.
Details
Given the deprecation timeline for the central helm repo, we should be using the distributed charts.
