fix: add conventional-commit prefix to dependabot PR titles - #11
Merged
Conversation
Dependabot's default titles ("Bump X from Y to Z") aren't Conventional
Commits format, so every dependabot PR failed pr-title-lint the moment
it went live on main - confirmed on PRs #7-10, all of which failed the
title check despite being safe, mergeable dependency bumps. Adding
commit-message.prefix makes titles "chore(deps): bump X from Y to Z",
which both passes the lint and gives release-please the right commit
type (chore - a CI/tooling dependency bump, not a fix or feature).
