Changes the way Renovate treats renovate config inside `package.json` files. Before, config used to be applied only to that particular file, meaning that it was not applied for the rest of a monorepo, or for other package managers like Docker. Now, any `renovate` section inside the repository’s root `package.json` will be applied globally, just the sams as if it were contained within a `renovate.json` file. This means there is no longer any case where you *must* have a `renovate.json` file instead of `package.json`.
Closes#1323
BREAKING CHANGE: renovate config in `./package.json` is now applied to whole repository, and renovate config inside non-root `package.json` files is now ignored.
We currently use got’s inbuilt caching for npmjs, however it still results in a roundtrip/304 even when cached. The when using presets is that a package like renovate-config-default gets looked up 10+ times unnecessarily. With this feature we assume that npm lookups don’t change for the duration of a run, and even if they did then we’d prefer the reliability of using the first lookup.
Closes#1389
This PR adds the capability to renovate more than one base branch at a time. For instance, a project may have their released `3.x` version on `master`, while an upcoming `4.x` is being prepared using branch `next`. `4.x` might have a quite different set of dependencies (e.g. some removed or some added) so it's not appropriate to only target `master` and keep rebasing, as it will get messy. Instead, it's necessary to target both `master` and `next` to keep both updated.
Closes#1279
By stripping ‘types/ from the branch name, package x and @types/x then become automatically combined in the same PR. We then massage it a little to ensure the decription for the non-types package is used, and a note added saying that types is included.
Closes#1365
Previously, Renovate would attempt to keep a branch up to date even if users had edited it. e.g. adding commits on top of the existing branch if newer versions were released. Now, Renovate adds a warning comment if a user has edited a branch, making it clear that responsibility for the branch is over to them and how they can undo this.
Closes#653
When 404 or 422 errors are encountered writing updates, Renovate will now restart in an attempt to fix it. Usually this is because branches/PRs have been edited or closed while Renovate is running.
Closes#1299
This PR updates Renovate to detect config validation problems and (1) stop processing, and (2) either raise an Issue if already onboarded, or (2) update the onboarding PR to reflect the error if still onboarding.
Closes#1300
Rename writeToken to forkToken to make it clearer. This enables GitHub API to use one token for all reads, and another token just for writing to the forked repository.
