By putting in the .github/dependabot.yml dependabot gets triggered.

tick. No INFRA needed.

It has a built-in limit so as not to flood the "pulls" (the limit is 5-ish). Doc says 5, there are 6.

PRs happen on clones of Jena.

Hmm. Unexpected.

The documentation says it just needs write permission to the repo - not a "settings" thing.

Merged - waiting for the first run ...

If it's not useful we can turn it off.

I'd like to add dependabot to the git repo to tell us about dependencies
updates.

dependabot sends PRs to the project, including gathering documentation
and explanation if available so we get to review the proposed changes.

I've a very simple setup on another project:

https://github.com/afs/rdf-delta/blob/main/.github/dependabot.yml


The github documentation:


https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/administering-a-repository/keeping-your-dependencies-updated-automatically


The first time it runs we will likely get quite a few updates because we
have quite a few dependencies.

We don't have to acceet the recommendations!
