Hi, I was looking through the docs, but could not find anything. I would like to match on a group name. Specifically, I want to rely on upstream preset, like group:allDigest and add a rule to it. In my case automerge. It might be more of the feature request, or it can be done already.

Thanks.

We have already been planning to implement matchBranchNames, would that be a suitable alternative?

I think it'll be definitely solving a problem, although it still feels like naming can be accidentally changed. Maybe it could be done in more of the extends way. I have not tried, but I think currently it won't work, as they are on different levels.

Something like:

{
  "packageRules": [
    {"extends": "group:allDigest", "automerge": true}
  ]
}
