Summary

  • replace package-style @tryghost: preset usage with github>TryGhost/renovate-config
  • standardize shared Renovate configuration on the dedicated renovate-config repository
  • remove indirection from older preset reference patterns

For a while, Renovate recommended using the .github repo to store shared presets. In our case, that setup is mostly just an alias to renovate-config, and it adds indirection and confusion about what our standard source should be.

Going forward, we don't want to use the .github repo for this. Having a dedicated renovate-config repo is more intuitive, so this switches to the direct preset source and standardizes where shared Renovate config comes from.

Walkthrough

The renovate.json configuration file is updated by changing the extends field value. The preset source is modified from "@TryGhost:quietJS" to "github>TryGhost/renovate-config", redirecting Renovate to use a GitHub-hosted configuration repository instead of the previous preset source. This is a single-line configuration change with no alterations to other fields or logic.
