fix(ci): exempt Dependabot 'Bump' subjects from commitlint (#3761)#3813
Merged
Conversation
Dependabot keeps a capital 'Bump' in its commit subject even with the configured chore(deps)/chore(ci) prefix (.github/dependabot.yml), and subject-case (no sentence-case) rejects it — so EVERY Dependabot PR fails the Commit Messages gate (and CI Success cascades) despite green tests, needing a manual squash each time (#3757/#3758/#3759 were all blocked). Add a commitlint `ignores` predicate matching `<prefix>: Bump <pkg> from <a> to <b>` so those bot commits are exempt, WITHOUT weakening subject-case for humans. Verified via the commitlint CLI: Dependabot 'Bump' subjects pass; bad types and human sentence-case subjects still fail. Closes #3761. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
