Usage of /usr/bin/helm-controller:
      --concurrent int                              The number of concurrent HelmRelease reconciles. (default 4)
      --default-kubeconfig-service-account string   Default service account used for kubeconfig.
      --default-service-account string              Default service account used for impersonation.
      --enable-leader-election                      Enable leader election for controller manager. Enabling this will ensure there is only one active controller manager.
      --events-addr string                          The address of the events receiver.
      --feature-gates mapStringBool                 A comma separated list of key=value pairs defining the state of experimental features.
      --graceful-shutdown-timeout duration          The duration given to the reconciler to finish before forcibly stopping. (default 10m0s)
      --health-addr string                          The address the health endpoint binds to. (default ":9440")
      --http-retry int                              The maximum number of retries when failing to fetch artifacts over HTTP. (default 9)
      --http-timeout duration                       The timeout for HTTP requests when fetching artifacts. (default 30s)
      --insecure-kubeconfig-exec                    Allow use of the user.exec section in kubeconfigs provided for remote apply.
      --insecure-kubeconfig-tls                     Allow that kubeconfigs provided for remote apply can disable TLS verification.
      --interval-jitter-percentage uint8            Percentage of jitter to apply to interval durations. A value of 10 will apply a jitter of +/-10% to the interval duration. It cannot be negative, and must be less than 100. (default 5)
      --kube-api-burst int                          The maximum burst queries-per-second of requests sent to the Kubernetes API. (default 300)
      --kube-api-qps float32                        The maximum queries-per-second of requests sent to the Kubernetes API. (default 50)
      --leader-election-lease-duration duration     Interval at which non-leader candidates will wait to force acquire leadership (duration string). (default 35s)
      --leader-election-release-on-cancel           Defines if the leader should step down voluntarily on controller manager shutdown. (default true)
      --leader-election-renew-deadline duration     Duration that the leading controller manager will retry refreshing leadership before giving up (duration string). (default 30s)
      --leader-election-retry-period duration       Duration the LeaderElector clients should wait between tries of actions (duration string). (default 5s)
      --log-encoding string                         Log encoding format. Can be 'json' or 'console'. (default "json")
      --log-level string                            Log verbosity level. Can be one of 'trace', 'debug', 'info', 'error'. (default "info")
      --max-retry-delay duration                    The maximum amount of time for which an object being reconciled will have to wait before a retry. (default 15m0s)
      --metrics-addr string                         The address the metric endpoint binds to. (default ":8080")
      --min-retry-delay duration                    The minimum amount of time for which an object being reconciled will have to wait before a retry. (default 750ms)
      --no-cross-namespace-refs                     When set to true, references between custom resources are allowed only if the reference and the referee are in the same namespace.
      --oom-watch-current-memory-path string        The path to the cgroup current memory usage file. Requires feature gate 'OOMWatch' to be enabled. If not set, the path will be automatically detected.
      --oom-watch-interval duration                 The interval at which the OOM watcher will check for memory usage. Requires feature gate 'OOMWatch' to be enabled. (default 500ms)
      --oom-watch-max-memory-path string            The path to the cgroup memory limit file. Requires feature gate 'OOMWatch' to be enabled. If not set, the path will be automatically detected.
      --oom-watch-memory-threshold uint8            The memory threshold in percentage at which the OOM watcher will trigger a graceful shutdown. Requires feature gate 'OOMWatch' to be enabled. (default 95)
      --override-manager stringArray                List of field managers to override during drift detection.
      --requeue-dependency duration                 The interval at which failing dependencies are reevaluated. (default 30s)
      --snapshot-digest-algo string                 The algorithm to use to calculate the digest of Helm release storage snapshots. (default "sha256")
