Hi all, I'm referring to dependabot PR on torvalds.git GitHub mirror [1]. I know that PRs submitted there are not accepted (the repo is essentially read-only mirror), hence this mail question. In summary, dependabot submitted automated PR that bumps package versions in `drivers/gpu/drm/ci/xfails/requirements.txt`. In this case, pip was upgraded to 23.3. From my experience, such automated PRs can pollute commit history (in some GitHub projects these PR kind can contribute up to half of total commits since the beginning of project). And in some projects, dependabot PRs are automatically merged without any maintainer intervention. Does such PRs (when submitted to LKML these will be patches) make sense for DRM subsystem? Thanks.
