/*Package repo implements the Helm Chart Repository.

A chart repository is an HTTP server that provides information on charts. A local
repository cache is an on-disk representation of a chart repository.

There are two important file formats for chart repositories.

The first is the 'index.yaml' format, which is expressed like this:

	apiVersion: v1
	entries:
	  frobnitz:
	  - created: 2016-09-29T12:14:34.830161306-06:00

An index.yaml file contains the necessary descriptive information about what
charts are available in a repository, and how to get them.

The second file format is the repositories.yaml file format. This file is for
facilitating local cached copies of one or more chart repositories.
