+      # ------ IMPORTANT ------
+      # Unfortunately dependabot core does not support knowing if an indirect dependency is from production or development
+      # [https://github.com/dependabot/fetch-metadata/issues/43#issuecomment-878173130]
+      # I am taking the risk to automatically update indirect dependencies of production dependencies.
+      # Ts-auto-mock will not be published automatically because of this.
+      # Before releasing a new version of ts-auto-mock the production dependencies need to be reviewed.
