Refreshing the Index with helm repo update

Keeping your local view of available charts current.

The Cache Goes Stale

When you add a repo, Helm caches its index once. New chart versions published later are invisible until you refresh that local copy.

The Refresh Command

helm repo update re-downloads the index for every repo you have added, syncing your local view with what each server now offers.
