This is a failsafe against Renovate bugs and potentially also mistakes on the user’s part. Before deleting/pruning any branches, Renovate will rename the PR’s title so that it should not block future PRs.
Closes#989
GitHub provides a tempting “Update branch” button whenever a branch is out of date with master, but the problem was that this then made us flag the branch as modified and hence unrebaseable, so the user would be stuck with keeping it update themselves from then on. With this feature, we ignore the “web-flow” committer when calculcating if there has been only one author.
This feature adds a new behaviour to Renovate, where it will now add a comment to any existing closed PRs that are "blocking" currently valid updates. A new API function "ensureComment" has been added, its purpose is so we can ensure there exists only one comment with a certain subject/heading. This lets us prevent duplicates as well as update existing, without having to keep state about it. ensureComment needs porting to gitlab, but should be quite easy.
* refactor: replace github code search with getTree/manual search (#944)
Previously Renovate was using the GitHub code search API once for each filename we are looking for. Instead, we now retrieve a list of files in the repository and cache it so it can be reused for filename matches.
Closes#939
* fix: use recursive=true
* fix: reset fileList for every repo (github)
* feat: implement findFilePaths on gitlab (#945)
* refactor: do not check manually for root package.json
* fix: reset fileList for every repo (gitlab)
* fix tests

Closes#939
This feature adds support for renovating Meteor's `package.js` files. Meteor config is disabled by default so must be manually enabled to work. If enabled, Renovate uses GitHub's search API to look for any files named `package.js` that include the text `Npm.depends`. If so then the file is parsed using Regex to extract its dependencies and check them for updates.
Closes#785
We should not leave the PR unopened forever if the branch remains in not-pending state too long. Some status checks may leave the status as “pending” instead of “failed”. Defaults to 12 hours but is configurable.
Closes#747
Renovate now adds a status check renovate/unpublish-safe that has the following behaviour:
If any upgrade in the branch is < 24 hours old then the status check state is "pending"
If all upgrades in the branch are 24 hours or more old then the status check state is "success"
This is able to be disabled via a new option "unpublishSafe".
Closes#494
This feature is particularly useful in the case that renovate is enabled on all repositories a user/account has. Many of those might be forks, and it makes no sense to renovate those by default. Instead, Renovate will skip over forked repositories unless a renovate.json has been added to their root.
Also, Renovate will now prune branches after deciding to skip a repository, whether because of a fork or disablement.
Closes#541
If a `lerna.json` is present in the root of the repository, then Renovate will automatically ignore (i.e. not renovate) all package names found in the `packages/*` path. It does not require an explicit configuration to work.
