422 Validation Failed when uploading new version

[Alon-Katz]

Hey,

Thanks for a great package, but I have a small issue.
The first time I uploaded my helm chart everything worked well, cr upload and then cr index did the job.

But now, when I am trying to upload a new version I keep getting:

422 Validation Failed [{Resource:Release Field:tag_name Code:already_exists Message:}]

Tried increasing the version and the appVersion in Chart.yaml but still keep getting the same error.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

Found the problem, the .deploy folder contained previous deployments and it tried to take them, after manually deleting them it worked, but maybe there is a better way to do this? like making the cr upload look for the latest version in the .deploy folder?

Sounds like this is probably resolved by #111 ? The --skip-existing flag now allows you to skip existing releases if they already exist.
