As I understand it, dependabot will try to rebase its own PRs so long as commits from "others" have not been made to the PR. The mod-tidier github workflow is currently configured to run only when a PR branch is labelled with "dependencies". My understanding (yet to be thoroughly vetted) is that
Whether this counts as a commit by "other users" is something I'm yet to ascertain. If I'm understanding the issue correctly, it may be best to wait until the next "auto-PR open" by dependabot happens, and then see what mod-tidier does with it - whether dependabot will still continue to rebase after mod-tidier runs. |
The problem is even if there isn't a conflict, it's necessary to merge. Dependabot knows how to rebase on conflict, but not if there are no conflicts. |
It seems like this issue is resolved with #2997, since we now have a single PR for all dependabot upgrades. |
