Versioning

This project uses Semantic Versioning.

Our versioning strategy is based on the version of application that is packaged in the chart:

Note: Some changes to the chart will not affect the application version. For example, if there is a bugfix or patch change to the chart that does not affect the application, the chart version will be incremented, but the application version will remain the same.
