Keep project dependencies up-to-date with an (semi-) automated process

[md42]

Benefits

The currently manual process for checking for new dependency Versions and update them could be automated

Detail

e.g. hugo.yaml contains the Hugo Version to be used, a newer Hugo Version is already available

Options

• GitHubs own dependabot
• Renovatebot
• Keep the dependency update process manual

Suggestion

Given Renovate supports other CI/CD Systems besides GitHub (Source) it might be the better choice. See also Why I recommend Renovate over any other dependency update tools and bot-comparison.

How to verify it works

Follow getting-started steps and see if renovate detects the new Hugo Version and updates to it
