43-47: Good separation of minor and major TypeScript updates.Excellent approach to separate minor and major version updates into distinct groups. This separation allows for:
- Automated minor updates that maintain backward compatibility
- Manual review of major updates that might contain breaking changes
This strategy aligns with TypeScript's Breaking Changes policy.
Consider adding a comment in the YAML file explaining the rationale behind this separation, as it might not be immediately obvious to other team members:
typescript-minor: + # Minor updates are backward compatible but may contain new features patterns: - 'typescript' update-types: - 'minor' typescript-major: + # Major updates may contain breaking changes requiring manual review patterns: - 'typescript' update-types: - 'major'Also applies to: 48-52

33-34: LGTM! Good practice to exclude TypeScript from general updates.
Excluding TypeScript from the general npm updates group is a good practice as it allows for more controlled updates of this critical dependency. This aligns with the Dependabot documentation on customizing dependency updates.
38-42: Well structured patch updates group for TypeScript.
Creating a separate group for patch updates follows the semantic versioning best practices. Patch updates typically contain bug fixes and are generally safe to apply automatically.
For more information about TypeScript's versioning strategy, see the TypeScript Release Notes.
33-52: Verify the effectiveness of the TypeScript update groups.
Let's verify that these groups will work as expected with Dependabot.
✅ Verification successful
TypeScript dependency groups are correctly configured
The verification confirms that:
- TypeScript is present as a dev dependency (~5.6.3)
- The Dependabot configuration correctly separates TypeScript updates into patch/minor/major groups
- No recent TypeScript-related Dependabot PRs exist, indicating the configuration hasn't been tested in production yet
The configuration follows the official Dependabot documentation for dependency groups and should work as expected when TypeScript updates are available.
🏁 Scripts executed
The following scripts were executed for the analysis:
Script:
#!/bin/bash
# Description: Verify the TypeScript dependency configuration
# Check if TypeScript is actually used in the project
echo "Checking for TypeScript dependency..."
if [ -f "package.json" ]; then
jq '.dependencies.typescript, .devDependencies.typescript' package.json
fi
# Look for any existing Dependabot PRs related to TypeScript
echo "Checking recent Dependabot PRs for TypeScript updates..."
gh pr list --search "typescript in:title author:app/dependabot" --limit 5 --json title,state
