versionincrement: "patch" seems to want to bump Major/Minors also ?

[SnappyLarry]

I currently have this configuration:

sources:
  traefik:
    kind: helmchart
    spec:
      url: "https://traefik.github.io/charts/"
      name: "traefik"
      
conditions: {}

targets:
  traefik:
    sourceid: traefik
    name: Bump traefik Chart dependencies
    kind: helmchart
    spec:
      Name: "charts/cluster-addons"
      file: "values.yaml"
      key: "$.traefik.chart.version"
      versionincrement: "patch"

I would expect updatecli to try to bump only the patch

when i run an updatecli diff i get the following behavior:

target: target#traefik

Dry Run enabled

⚠ - change detected:
* key "$.traefik.chart.version" should be updated from "32.1.1" to "33.0.0", in file "charts/cluster-addons/values.yaml"
change detected:
* key "$.version" should be updated from "0.1.0" to "0.1.1", in file "charts/cluster-addons/Chart.yaml"

is there something i'm missing?

The versioncincrement affects the appVersion of your Helmchart.
In this case

 * key "$.version" should be updated from "0.1.0" to "0.1.1", in file "charts/cluster-addons/Chart.yaml"

While the value in key: "$.traefik.chart.version is defined by your source result.
In your case, it's the "latest" version of the traefik chart.
so if you want to retrieve the latest patch version, you could do something like

sources:
  traefik:
    kind: helmchart
    spec:
      url: "https://traefik.github.io/charts/"
      name: "traefik"
      versionfilter:
        kind: semver
        pattern: "32.1.x"

If you don't know in advance "32.1.x" then you can build a more advance update scenario by:

• chaining two sources, one to retrieve the current version, and a second one to get the latest version
• you can use a transformers to modify the currently used version
• you need to specify a different sourceid

So something like this

sources:
  currentTraefikVersion:
    kind: yaml
    spec:
      file: "/tmp/values.yaml"
      key: "$.traefik.chart.version"
    transformers:
      - semverinc: minor

  traefik:
    kind: helmchart
    dependson:
      - "currentTraefikVersion"
    spec:
      url: "https://traefik.github.io/charts/"
      name: "traefik"
      versionfilter:
        kind: semver
        pattern: '<{{ source "currentTraefikVersion" }}'

targets:
  traefik:
    kind: shell
    sourceid: traefik
    spec:
      command: "echo "
