- Add comprehensive Renovate configuration with best practices - Configure security update prioritization (immediate, highest priority) - Set up dependency grouping (Python, ML/AI, web framework, etc.) - Implement auto-merge for safe patch/minor updates - Add stability protection (3-14 days based on dependency type) - Special handling for PyTorch CPU versions - Configure dependency dashboard for visibility - Add Dependabot as backup security scanner - Create dependency review GitHub Actions workflow - Add comprehensive documentation Features: - Security updates: Immediate, never auto-merged - ML/AI dependencies: 7-day stability, manual review required - Patch updates: Auto-merge after 1 day (safe packages) - Minor updates: Auto-merge after 2 days (safe packages) - Major updates: 14-day stability, manual review required - Weekly schedule: Monday mornings before 10am UTC - Dependency grouping: Easier review and management - License validation: Blocks GPL-2.0, GPL-3.0 - Vulnerability alerts: Enabled with high priority This configuration protects the repository by: - Prioritizing security updates - Preventing breaking changes - Grouping related updates - Providing visibility via dashboard - Automating safe updates - Requiring review for critical changes
- Make dependency-review workflow non-blocking (continue-on-error) - Add helpful error message with setup instructions - Create alternative dependency-check workflow (no Advanced Security required) - Update documentation with setup instructions - Add troubleshooting section for dependency review errors The dependency-review workflow now gracefully handles cases where: - Dependency graph is not enabled - GitHub Advanced Security is not enabled (private repos) The alternative dependency-check workflow provides basic validation without requiring Advanced Security, making it work for all repositories.
- Fix IndentationError in requirements.txt validation step - Use proper Python -c syntax with correct indentation - Test validation script locally to ensure it works
