Hi Nasser,

I see that Mike configured Revovate for Fineract 1.x by getting Apache
Infra to initialise the configuration on their side. See
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-962 and
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20365 for background and way to
go. So just read through and open an Infra ticket to get Forking Renovate
enabled  on all the Fineract CN repos you need. Maybe do this after AUdrey
has updated all the repos to at least the latest dependencies.

When enabled you will find a PR similar to this opens on all the repos:
https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/962

Notice that Fineract 1.x uses https://github.com/apps/forking-renovate
which require only read only access to the repo instead on
https://github.com/apps/renovate (which requires Read/Write access).

Hope this helps.

Thanks
Awasum
