Description

Provide a concise summary of the changes made in this pull request

  • Adds a new guide, Enable Redis Authentication, documenting the Redis auth support introduced in Helm chart 3.8.2 (appsmithorg/appsmith#41874): how the password bootstrap hook Job works, how to upgrade existing deployments to chart 3.8.2+ (including bring-your-own password, opt-out, ArgoCD, and air-gapped registries), and how to enable auth manually on charts older than 3.8.2 (pre-created Secret with a redis-password key, explicit applicationConfig.APPSMITH_REDIS_URL, and an ArgoCD ignoreDifferences fallback). Includes a troubleshooting section (NOAUTH/WRONGPASS, hook image pulls, release names containing "redis").
  • Registers the page in the sidebar under the existing Helm Chart category as "Redis Authentication".
  • Adds a cross-link in the Helm Chart reference's Redis section noting auth is enabled by default since chart 3.8.2.

docs: trim Redis auth guide to be action-oriented
bc904d7 
Remove the "How it works" section, the standalone ArgoCD note, and
internal-behavior narration throughout so the guide focuses on the
steps users need to act on.

docs: note removing explicit redis.auth.enabled=false before upgrade
31b34de 
An explicit redis.auth.enabled: false in an existing values.yaml
overrides the new chart default, leaving Redis auth disabled after the
upgrade. Add a step to check for and remove it.

docs: make the values.yaml check step action-first

Lead with the action rather than the explanation.
