A faster way to manage version updates with Dependabot

Now, you can group multiple version updates in a single pull request.

renovate has been doing this for ages

Renovate is great. Plus there’s just something about Github owning dependabot that always bothered me.

Thank fuck! I’m so sick of rebasing and merging Dependabot PRs.

Yeah, this was especially irritating in a python project that uses poetry, cause every single one would cause a merge conflict. We stopped using it altogether because of that. Will have to give this a try.

How is this group feature different from the existing group feature (https://github.blog/changelog/2023-06-30-grouped-version-updates-for-dependabot-public-beta/)? Just that it is no longer a beta feature (i.e. they have settled on the configuration syntax and are re-announcing it)?
