I'm currently running helm 3.0.0 in ubuntu and want to upgrade to helm > 3.0.2 for gitlab. The install instructions suggest it's as simple as deleting the helm binary and downloading the new one and the release notes all suggest there are no breaking changes. Could it possibly be that simple?

I'm able to `helm version` and I get `...3.1.1`, but not sure how I can tell if anything broke – mikeLundquist Feb 26 '20 at 15:16

Helm, as of 3.0, is a purely client side tool. You upgrade it like you would any other CLI program on your computer. – coderanger Feb 26 '20 at 18:07

It should be that simple, provided you put the binary in the right place in your path (i.e. replace the one that you already get from which helm, assuming you're on unix).
You could test it by running some of the following helm commands:
helm versionwill tell you what you're running.helm listwill tell you what you have installed in your cluster (add-n <namespace>for a different namespace)
If you're ok to temporarily install something into the cluster, follow a helm example to install something and then delete it again with a helm delete
