There are at least two other hugely important use cases you missed:
- automatic security / vendoring updates (e.g. https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate)
- automated cross-repo syncs, e.g. Google has processes and tools that bidirectionally sync pieces of Google3 with GitHub repos
Try Renovate, much more configurable than Dependabot
https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate
Honestly dependabot is so bad I'm surprised anything other than the smallest projects use it, broken upgrades, lack of configurability, no multi-update PRs etc... and it only runs on GitHub.
I now recommend Renovate to clients which is also free, but a lot smarter.
If you want an alternative to Dependabot, try Renovate [0].
This looks really cool. How dos it compare to say [renovate?](https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate)
I look forward to trying this with gitea to automatically create pull requests to update ansible plays with the latest version of software.
I used to do this before I discovered renovate [1] - now we spend time working on major upgrades but minor are generally automatic (assuming they pass tests)
You could use renovate [1] to watch your repository and open pr for you when there is a new version. I don't know if it supports watching debian repositories out of the box, but that's probably doable with some tweaking
