If you are using Dependabot grouped version updates (currently in public beta), you can now group your pull requests by semantic version update level. This addition is designed to help reduce the risk of introducing a breaking change through an update.
To use this new functionality, add a new update-types
key in your group rule, as shown below:
groups:
angular:
patterns:
- "@angular*"
update-types:
- "minor"
- "patch"
The update-types
key accepts values "major," "minor," and "patch," following the SemVer structure of major.minor.patch
.
This new key works alongside existing grouping parameters such as patterns
, dependency-type
, and exclude-patterns
, allowing you to fine-tune the grouped pull requests that Dependabot creates for you!
