## Chart Versioning Notes
Up until the initial helm chart release for v2.1.0, the helm chart version matched the Rancher version (i.e `appVersion`).
Since there are times where the helm chart will require changes without any changes to the Rancher version, we have moved to a `yy.mm.dd` helm chart version.
Run `helm search rancher` to view which Rancher version will be launched for the specific helm chart version.
