Dependabot Preview will be shut down on August 3rd, 2021. In order to keep getting Dependabot updates, please merge this PR and migrate to GitHub-native Dependabot before then.

Dependabot has been fully integrated into GitHub, so you no longer have to install and manage a separate app. This pull request updates your config file to the new syntax. When merged, we'll swap out dependabot-preview (me) for a new dependabot app, and you'll be all set!

With this change, you'll now use the Dependabot page in GitHub, rather than the Dependabot dashboard, to monitor your version updates, and you'll configure Dependabot through the new config file rather than a UI.

Your previous schedule was set to live. This option is no longer supported in the new config file so it has been changed to daily.

You have configured automerging on this repository. There is no automerging support in GitHub-native Dependabot, so these settings will not be added to the new config file. Several 3rd-party GitHub Actions and bots can replicate the automerge feature.

If you've got any questions or feedback for us, please let us know by creating an issue in the dependabot/dependabot-core repository.

Alright, so this is what I came up with:

  • Let dependabot manage only our development dependencies.
  • Configure mergify on top of dependabot to merge all dependabot pull requests (they should be development dependencies only).
  • To fix the issue of dependabot unintentionally bumping the rails version of each Gemfile, configure it to only include lockfile updates, and let rails be the only dependency with a specific requirement on each Gemfile.

I'm unsure how to test this, so I guess we can go ahead and merge it and see how it goes.

Ok that sounds great to me! No problem, I think its best to just go with this since we have to do it anyway. We'll be able to test/confirm as new dependency updates come in. Thank you! ❤️
