   source:
     credentials_secret: source-creds
   
   gitops:
     server_address: https://github.com/

     branch: main
     username: supplychain
     email: supplychain
     commit_message: supplychain@cluster.local
     credentials_secret: gitops-creds
     commit_strategy: direct
   
   maven:
     repository:
       url: https://my-maven-repository/releases
       secret_name: my-maven-repository-credentials
   
   cluster_builder: default
   service_account: default
   

3. With the configuration ready, install the package by running:

   tanzu package install ootb-supply-chain-basic \
     --package ootb-supply-chain-basic.tanzu.vmware.com \
     --version 0.15.6 \
     --namespace tap-install \
     --values-file ootb-supply-chain-basic-values.yaml
   

   Example output:
