Mend Renovate | Dependency Update Automation

Renovate: an open-source tool which automatically creates pull requests for all types of dependency updates. Includes crowdsourced test and package adoption data are used to flag potentially risky updates and enable auto-merging for those that meet user-defined conditions.

How Renovate works:

• Scans your repos to detect dependencies (wide package manager support)
• Checks if any newer versions exist
• Raises PRs for available updates

Reduce technical debt through automated, proactive dependency updates. Cease falling behind the latest versions.

Stop worrying about breaking your build. Crowdsourced merge confidence and package adoption data are used to identify whether an update can be safely merged or contains potential risk.

Automate high confidence updates. Set up auto-merging without human intervention, for updates that pass your tests and satisfy the auto-merge rules you define.

Group and schedule updates to ensure they don’t interrupt your existing workflows.
