Mukul SharmaandClaude Opus 5 c08a67d88e Server-side apply for the argocd Application
Argo CD v3's own CRDs (applications, applicationsets, appprojects) embed
large schemas that exceed the 256KiB last-applied-configuration annotation
a client-side apply writes — the same reason cert-manager and
external-secrets already use this. Without it the upgrade sync fails on
the CRDs rather than on anything in the release.

ServerSideDiff comes with it for the same reason as the other three, and
becomes belt-and-braces once the upgraded Argo CD's schema matches the
cluster.

devops-infra-argo-config

GitOps control plane for infrastructure tooling across Meesho's Kubernetes fleet.

This repo manages ArgoCD Application resources for every infrastructure tool (Contour, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Kyverno, KEDA, external-secrets, Vault, etc.) deployed across ~19 clusters. It uses an App-of-Applications pattern: one parent Application per cluster renders child Applications from a appSpec[] list via a generic Helm chart.

Each environment tracks a dedicated branch — merging to that branch triggers immediate ArgoCD auto-sync with no staging gate:

Environment Branch
Production (prd) main
Staging (stg) develop
Integration (int) pre-prod

How it works

incubator/<env>/<cluster>.yaml          ← Parent Application (one per cluster)
    └── points at generic-argo-apps-chart/ + values/<env>/<cluster>-values.yaml
            └── renders one child Application per appSpec[] entry
                    └── sources charts + overrides from devops-infra-helm-charts

  • devops-argo-config — Same pattern for service/application workloads (not infra tooling).
