Once we exit Alpha.5, we won't be modifying any existing command names. This is a last call to suggest any changes to the commands/subcommands.

We're shooting for:

  • consistency of patterns (e.g. helm NOUN VERB and helm VERB)
  • terminology that matches other package managers (not necessarily kubectl)
  • low barrier of entry for commonly used things
  • strategy for when to alias (e.g. should helm search be an alias to helm charts search
  • and any related flags that should be changed to be consistent with the above

(This ticket is specifically about naming commands, not the functionality of various commands.)

@technosophos I am curious about the noun verb pattern. That is opposite of kubectl, why?

I put a sample draft of noun verb over in #1174 (comment)
