One of the things I need to worry about with Anubis is the idea that could pwn a dependency and then get malicious code into prod without realizing it, a-la Jia Tan. Given that Anubis relies on tools like Dependabot to manage updating dependencies (good for other reasons), it makes sense to have Dependabot have a 7 day cooldown for new versions of dependencies. This follows the advice from Yossarian on their blog at [1]. Thanks for the post and easy to copy/paste snippets!
