What is a risk-based merge plan for dependency version bumps?▼

A risk-based merge plan for dependency version bumps categorizes open Dependabot PRs into phases based on risk signals, allowing you to safely merge low-impact updates first and handle high-risk runtime changes later.

Can I analyze Dependabot PRs for both devDependencies and runtime dependencies?▼
