ArgoCD with Helm Umbrella Chart

[michalip]

Hello,
I'm interested in using ArgoCD but I can't seem to find info on Helm umbrella charts + argo + gitops.

The scenario requires 60+ microservices to be deployed/updated to K8s
To satisfy this need we have an umbrella Helm chart, listing all the microservices as SUBCHARTS and using _tpl inheritance in Helm we are able to install all subcharts under the umbrella chart in one go.

The microservices have their own git repos (bitbucket) , 60 repos.
The umbrella helm chart will also have its own repo and since this is a single chart, it will be only in 1 repo, not 60.
Any dev can go and do a PR -> umbrella chart update 1 microservice to a new image

The question is will Argo detect an app/service/subchart being out of sync if we are using an umbrella chart ?
Will it display one app or 60 apps ?
Can this work in Argo or do I need 60 individual helm charts for each microservice repo?

Any one have a similar setup with an umbrella app or a doc for this?

Much appreciated
