Improves dependency management by configuring Dependabot to check daily while preventing excessive update noise through a 7-day cooldown period. This ensures timely security updates while reducing PR churn.

  • Related to PSModule workflow standardization

Dependabot configuration

Changed the update schedule from weekly to daily with a 7-day cooldown period. This provides faster detection of security vulnerabilities while avoiding duplicate PRs for the same dependency within a week.

schedule:
  interval: daily
cooldown:
  default-days: 7

Release configuration cleanup

Removed the deprecated .github/release.yml file as release notes are now managed through the Auto-Release action's automated process.

Action pinning

Pinned all GitHub Actions to specific commit SHAs for improved security and reproducibility:

  • actions/checkout@de0fac2e4500dabe0009e67214ff5f5447ce83dd (v6.0.2)
  • actions/upload-artifact@330a01c490aca151604b8cf639adc76d48f6c5d4 (v5.0.0)
  • super-linter/super-linter@d5b0a2ab116623730dd094f15ddc1b6b25bf7b99 (v8.3.2)
  • PSModule/Auto-Release@eabd533035e2cb9822160f26f2eda584bd012356 (v1.9.5)
  • PSModule/Install-PSModuleHelpers@d60d63e4be477d1ca0c67c6085101fb109bce8f1 (v1.0.6)

  • The deletion of .github/release.yml is not mentioned in the PR description or title, which focuses solely on Dependabot configuration changes. This file contains release note configuration and its removal appears to be unrelated to the stated purpose of the PR.

The changes to pin GitHub Actions to specific commit SHAs (actions/checkout@v6 to v6.0.2 with SHA) are not mentioned in the PR description, which focuses only on Dependabot configuration changes. While pinning actions to commit SHAs is a security best practice, these updates appear unrelated to the stated purpose of configuring Dependabot's schedule and cooldown.

If these changes are intentional as part of a broader update, please update the PR description to reflect all changes being made. Otherwise, consider separating these updates into a different PR for clarity.
