Renovate by default doesn't group dependencies. This is to achieve fine-grained changes. However, it can also be the root cause for maintainers getting flooded with notifications.
With regards to Renovate noise reduction and related to #93, one of the most powerful ways is grouping related dependencies into a single Pull Request.

This introduces the following reusable presets:

Combining those presets with proper Pull Request scheduling, they can help finding a good workflow to keep up-to-date.


A heads-up about possible downsides of dependency grouping. If a group contains an update that is not possible, one has to either:

  • manually adjust the Pull Request to not include that package update
  • manually adjust the repository renovate.json5 to ignore a specific package version
Renovate by default doesn't group dependencies. This is to achieve fine-grained changes. However, it can also be the root cause for maintainers getting flooded with notifications. With regards to Renovate [noise reduction](https://docs.renovatebot.com/noise-reduction/) and related to #93, one of the most powerful ways is grouping related dependencies into a single Pull Request. This introduces the following reusable presets: - Golang dependencies - NPM dependencies - Workflow/Actions dependencies - Security fixes (depends on an experimental feature: https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/discussions/20542) Combining those presets with proper Pull Request scheduling, they can help finding a good workflow to keep up-to-date. --- A heads-up about possible downsides of dependency grouping.
