Notes
This will not start working until the file exists on the default branch. Additionally, dependabot will only run the config that exists on the default branch. This is one reason I would suggest making the default branch
develop
, although there are plenty of other reasons which mostly involve improving the developer experience.Personally, I set my dependabot config to run daily, but that may be too overwhelming/annoying for this repo, so I changed it to weekly.
For more dependabot config options, here is the official documentation: https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file
