Minor and patch updates now arrive as one PR per group - dev-tools and runtime for composer, all actions for github-actions - instead of one PR per package. The default limit of five open PRs per ecosystem was reached with ten stale single-package PRs, which stopped dependabot from proposing anything new. Major updates still come in individually so they get reviewed on their own. commit-message prefixes make dependabot commits match the [TYPE] subjects used in this repository.

The [BUILD]/[CI] prefixes followed a team convention that does not belong in this repository - the merges on main are plain descriptive titles, and dependabot's default "Bump x from y to z" already matches that style.

Ten stale single-package PRs (#4–#19) filled the default limit of five open PRs per ecosystem, so dependabot kept running weekly but could no longer open anything. All ten proposed versions were already on
main— some behind it — so they were closed rather than merged. The effect of the freed quota was immediate: #23, #24 and #25 arrived the same week, still as individual PRs because this config was not merged yet.What this changes:
dev-toolsandruntimefor composer, all actions in one PR for github-actions. Five separate PRs for five dev-tool patch bumps is what filled the quota in the first place.open-pull-requests-limit(10 for composer, 5 for actions) instead of relying on the default.Commit titles keep dependabot's default (
Bump x from y to z) — that matches the plain descriptive style of the merges onmain. An earlier revision of this PR added[BUILD]/[CI]prefixes from a team convention that does not apply to this repository; that is reverted.No workflow or dependency is touched; the config takes effect on the next dependabot run.
