Is there any way to get pulumi to auto update helm repos?

Or is it just expected to have to `helm update` and `helm repo add` and all that all the time?

Not sure exactly what you mean?  I don't think you should have to do either of these.

Pulumi never updates the repo, therefore if I specify a new version of a chart, it won’t work.

`Error: chart "memcached" matching version "2.9.0" not found in stable index. (try 'helm repo update'). No chart version found for memcached-2.9.0` for example

`error: Error: Command failed: helm fetch stable/memcached --untar --version 2.9.0 --destination /tmp/tmp-2634JcP47N5dmFKY`

Could you share a snippet of how you are specifying the chart?

```
export const memcached = new k8s.helm.v2.Chart('memcached', {
  repo: 'stable',
  chart: 'memcached',
  version: '2.9.0',
  namespace: namespace.metadata.name,
  values: {
    fullNameOverride: 'memcached',
    memcached: {
      maxItemMemory: 4096,
      extraArgs: ['-c 20240', '-I 1m', '-t 48']
    },
    imagePullPolicy: 'IfNotPresent'
  },
  transformations: [
    (resource: any) =&gt; {
      if (resource != null &amp;&amp; resource.metadata != null) {
        resource.metadata.namespace = namespace.metadata.name;
      }
    }
  ]
});
```
