Helm Client Relative URL Support as Default (Helm Client V2 End of Life)

From November 1st, 2024, Artifactory will use Helm Relative URL for indexing Helm Chart responses by default.

Since this feature is only supported by Helm clients V3 and above, customers using Helm clients V2 are required to upgrade.

From January 1st, 2025, Artifactory will use Helm client v3 by default, and remove the support for all Helm client versions under 3.0.0.
