Motivation: Reduce CI pipeline load and review fatigue by pacing automated updates. Design Choices: Configure cooldown with default-days set to 7 in the github-actions section of .github/dependabot.yml. Benefits: Paces automated pull requests to match the established openQA and qem-dashboard update patterns. Related issue: https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/203049

LGTM. Looking at the upstream docs, it seems like there is a default three-day cooldown but it "does not apply to security updates", which makes it useless for safety purposes (if you're trying to get an evil update rolled out, just declare it's a security update). The docs never elaborate on this, though - they never state whether an explicitly-configured cooldown period includes security updates, or document any kind of "include security updates in cooldown" setting. So I hope explicitly-configured cooldown does include "security updates". Still, this appears to be the best we can do. |
