ISSUE TYPE


Feature Pull Request #191

COMPONENT NAME

helm, helm_template
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION





There is a doc generated for history_max option for the helm module. I think that is not generated in the previous PR #164.


There is others changes affect the docs/ folder when I run the collection_prep_add_docs -p .  command. These changes are added in the last commit  64eab40. I let you decide rather we keep the commit or remove it.


The --dependency-update insertion option is tested used a local helm chart repository create via docker. So here are the tasks that test this feature.  Maybe if we create a GitHub repository for the helm chart, we can add this test code in the CI pipeline.
