I don't think that this makes sense for us. We want to follow the DRY principle. Are there other options for you? Maybe a chart annotation (https://artifacthub.io/docs/topics/annotations/helm/)?

The ideal outcome I’m looking for is that there’s a license file per chart.

A chart is an independent deployable unit, and the convention is to have LICENSE file at that unit level.

If the annotation will do just that, great. Otherwise, if there’s a way to copy the file during build/publishing to artifacthub, that should work as well.

Third option, to avoid DRY, is to possible symlink the file to the LICENSE file at root. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/954560/how-does-git-handle-symbolic-links

Thanks
