Describe the problem

This PR received an unexpected force push: import-js/.github#2

It seems like Renovate thought the config changed and needed to update the PR:

DEBUG: Rebasing onboarding branch
{
  "previousConfigHash": "16b5d9aaa4c1b72cbe8c97df5985b530c94d3cb61c84931d45dcc539f5fbf9f7"

Have you created a minimal reproduction repository?

I have explained in the description why a minimal reproduction is impossible

@RahulGautamSingh can you compare the configs from the two logs and work out why the hash changed and if it's intentional/desirable or if logic can be improved to prevent this in future?

[RahulGautamSingh]

It happened because in the two runs the onboarding config changed.
Previously

  "onboardingConfig": {
      "$schema": "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
      "extends": [
        "config:base"
      ]
    },

Now

  "onboardingConfig": {
      "$schema": "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
      "extends": [
        "config:recommended"
      ]
    },

OK, that's a rare change and expected then
