Maintenance

Today, Renovate is the only maintenance task covered here. Bug fixes are tracked and labeled separately — see Big Bang work items.

Every Big Bang package repository is created from a shared template containing a default renovate.json, so within Big Bang’s own package ecosystem, Renovate is on by default for any repository with that file — it’s automatically included in Big Bang’s nightly Renovate run. New packages still need package-specific configuration added on top of the template’s defaults.

If you deploy the Renovate package in your own environment, this auto-inclusion doesn’t apply — you’ll need to configure which repositories to include yourself. See Renovate for details.

  • For deploying or configuring Renovate in your own environment, see Renovate.
  • For the common review, testing, and merge process that applies across all packages, see Renovate Package Maintenance.
  • For a specific package’s own configuration and caveats, see that package’s DEVELOPMENT_MAINTENANCE.md in its repository.
