+- **`RHDHDeployment.applyAppConfig()`** (exposes the former private `_applyAppConfig`): Applies the merged app-config ConfigMap without a full `deploy()`, using the same merge path as `deploy()` after you change `configure()` options (for example a different `appConfig` file).
+- **Use with restarts**: Call **`scaleDownAndRestart()`** or **`rolloutRestart()`** afterward when Helm does not reload config by itself; finish with **`waitUntilReady()`**. Typical pattern: `configure({ auth, appConfig, valueFile, ... })` → `applyAppConfig()` → `scaleDownAndRestart()` → `waitUntilReady()`.
