What changes

Version updates move from Dependabot to Renovate, as in Progmasoft/tala#51.

  • .github/renovate.json5 is new. Renovate watches what Dependabot watched here, looks once a week, takes a release a week after it is published, opens one pull request for each kind of dependency with at most two open, and rebases a pull request only when it conflicts. A dashboard issue lists what is pending.
  • .github/dependabot.yml is removed, which turns Dependabot's version updates off and makes it close the version-update pull requests it has open.
  • Dependabot keeps its alerts and its security updates. Those are repository settings, and both are enabled. Renovate's own vulnerability pull requests are off, so one advisory does not get two fixes.

The configuration takes effect when the Renovate app is installed on the repository, which the owner does. Until then no bot proposes version updates.

Verification

renovate-config-validator .github/renovate.json5     validated successfully
git diff --check                                     clean

Not verified: what Renovate does with this configuration on the repository. That shows on its first run after the app is installed.

This is a self-review by the author of the branch.

Renovate proposes the version updates of this repository from now on.
It watches what Dependabot watched, looks once a week, takes a release
a week after it is published, opens one pull request for each kind of
dependency with at most two open, and rebases a pull request only when
it conflicts. A dashboard issue lists what is pending.

The Dependabot configuration is removed, which turns its version
updates off. Dependabot keeps its alerts and its security updates,
which are repository settings. Renovate does not open its own pull
requests for vulnerabilities, so one advisory does not get two fixes.

The configuration passes Renovate's validator and takes effect when
the Renovate app is installed on the repository.
