Problem Statement

Clarify when auto-detecting a base64 encrypted script may fail. It's more frequent than what the original wording suggests. Also, one of the examples were incorrect.

Related Issue

Proposed Changes

Update the docs.

<summary>external-secrets/external-secrets (external-secrets)</summary>

### [`v0.19.0`](https://github.com/external-secrets/external-secrets/releases/tag/v0.19.0)

[Compare Source](external-secrets/external-secrets@v0.18.2...v0.19.0)

#### **BREAKING CHANGE**

🔴 🔴  BREAKING CHANGE 🔴 🔴

Please note that this a breaking change because our CRDs are now too big. Meaning a simple kubectl apply or Argo's default client side apply WILL NOT WORK! You have to add `--server-side` to kubectl apply and in argo add:

```yaml
spec:
  project: default
  syncPolicy:
    automated:
      prune: true
      selfHeal: true
    syncOptions:
    - CreateNamespace=true
    - ServerSideApply=true
```

for it to correctly install the CRDs. Thank you.
