FAQPage Schema
How do I automate dependency updates and create PRs for a pnpm project?

To automate dependency updates, you can run a workflow that executes `pnpm outdated` and `pnpm audit` to identify vulnerable packages, automatically generating pull requests for immediate fixes and issues for major bumps requiring further evaluation.

What is the best way to manage major dependency version bumps that need further evaluation?

The best way to manage major dependency bumps is to use an automated workflow that creates individual GitHub issues for each outdated package, isolating them for manual assessment while applying patch updates through separate pull requests.

Do I need pnpm and GitHub actions to automate repository dependency audits?

Yes, you need pnpm and GitHub actions to automate repository dependency audits, as the workflow relies on pnpm for package management and the GitHub API for creating pull requests and managing issues within the repository context.

Can I separate immediate patch updates from vulnerable dependencies requiring manual review?

Yes, you can separate immediate patch updates from vulnerable dependencies by running an automated process that generates patch PRs for safe fixes and raises individual issues for dependencies needing further manual review.

How does issue management work when updating outdated dependencies in a repository?

Issue management during dependency updates works by updating existing issues and creating new ones specifically for major version bumps, maintaining a structured record of packages that require further evaluation before integration.
