+   Renovate is a service similar to GitHub Dependabot, but with
+   (fantastically) more configuration options.  So many options
+   in fact, if you're new I recommend glossing over this cheat-sheet
+   prior to the official documentation:
+
+   https://www.augmentedmind.de/2021/07/25/renovate-bot-cheat-sheet
+
+   Configuration Update/Change Procedure:
+     1. Make changes
+     2. Manually validate changes (from repo-root):
+
+        podman run -it \
+            -v ./.github/renovate.json5:/usr/src/app/renovate.json5:z \
+            docker.io/renovate/renovate:latest \
+            renovate-config-validator
+     3. Commit.
+
+   Configuration Reference:
+   https://docs.renovatebot.com/configuration-options/
+
+   Monitoring Dashboard:
+   https://app.renovatebot.com/dashboard#github/containers
+
+   Note: The Renovate bot will create/manage it's business on
+         branches named 'renovate/*'.  Otherwise, and by
+         default, the only the copy of this file that matters
+         is the one on the `main` branch.  No other branches
+         will be monitored or touched in any way.
