## Summary
- Point ArgoCD app directly at forge-mirrored upstream repo (`mirrors/cloudnative-pg`) instead of the Helm charts repo
- Use `directory.include` to select the specific release manifest (`cnpg-1.27.1.yaml`) from the `releases/` directory
- No vendored files, no Helm — upgrades are a two-line change (`targetRevision` + `directory.include`)
- Delete unused `values.yaml` (was empty, all Helm defaults)
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Register mirror repo in ArgoCD: `argocd repo add ssh://forgejo@forge.ops.eblu.me:2222/mirrors/cloudnative-pg.git --ssh-private-key-path <key>`
- [ ] `argocd app set cloudnative-pg --revision feature/cnpg-direct-source && argocd app sync cloudnative-pg`
- [ ] Verify operator pod running: `kubectl get pods -n cnpg-system --context=minikube-indri`
- [ ] Verify CRDs exist: `kubectl get crd --context=minikube-indri | grep cnpg`
- [ ] Verify existing clusters healthy: `kubectl get clusters -A --context=minikube-indri`
- [ ] After merge: `argocd app set cloudnative-pg --revision main && argocd app sync cloudnative-pg`
## Notes
- The forge mirror was created via `mise run mirror-create` from `https://github.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg.git`
- ArgoCD may need the mirror repo added to its known repositories if the credential template doesn't already match `mirrors/*`
