true values will always win when merging DSFs

[knutjda]

When passing multiple DSFs with the -f option, the DSF with a field containing a true value will always override other values. No matter the order of DSFs.

Given the following DSFs
common.yaml:

apps:
  jenkins:
    chart: "stable/jenkins"
    version: "0.21.0"
    enabled: false 
    test: true 

override.yaml:

apps:
  jenkins:
    chart: "stable/jenkins"
    version: "0.21.0"
    enabled: true 
    test: false

When I run the following commands

helmsman -f common.yaml -f override.yaml -debug
helmsman -f override.yaml -f common.yaml -debug

Both commands will output:

Applications: 
--------------- 

	chart :  stable/jenkins
	version :  0.21.0
	test :  true
	enabled :  true

Probably related to this issue in mergo: darccio/mergo#89

Tested with Helmsman version 1.7.1.

I would say this is a mergo bug and there's not much we can do on our side.
But I'll take a look anyway to be sure.

For those of you who need it, @Pothulapati built a fork that solves this here.

@luisdavim now that this issue darccio/mergo#89 is closed. Is there a way to resolve the always true bug?

Thanks mate! Love this tool.

[luisdavim]

I'll have a look.
