pmg allows you to trust a package. A trusted package bypasses every
control PMG enforces: it is not scanned for malware, it is exempt from the
dependency cooldown window, and it will be exempted
from any future controls PMG adds. Use this list for packages you fully vouch
for — typically first-party packages or vendored internal dependencies.
If you only want to waive a single control (for example, install a package
immediately without waiting out the cooldown, but still have it analyzed for
malware), use the per-control skip list for that control instead — e.g.
dependency_cooldown.skip.
Trusted packages are configured in the config.yml file. See config template for the configuration schema.
If you don't have a config.yml file, you can create one by running pmg setup install.
