Summary

Stop Dependabot from proposing typescript MAJOR-version bumps on this repo, until the fleet toolchain catches up.

Why (fleet-wide rationale)

typescript 7.x breaks this fleets toolchain:

  • DTS emit via tsup/rollup-plugin-dts throws TS5101 ("baseUrl deprecated") as a hard error.
  • typescript-eslint still caps its peer range below typescript 6.1.0 as of its latest 8.66.0 release -- no TS7 support yet.

Several repos in the fleet already had this manually fixed once (typescript pinned back down) only for Dependabot to re-propose and re-merge the exact same breaking major bump later, because Dependabot has no memory of a prior manual revert. This broke main on 5 repos tonight and was fixed manually; this PR is the permanent guard so it cannot recur on this repo.

This is a deliberate, temporary hold -- not a permanent blind. Remove the ignore: rule once typescript-eslint and the tsup/DTS toolchain support TS7.

Change

Adds an ignore: block (sibling to the existing groups: block) to .github/dependabot.yml that ignores typescript major-version updates specifically. Minor/patch typescript updates continue to flow through the existing grouped dev-dependencies PR as before.

Test plan

  • YAML validated with python3 -c "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open(...))"
  • Diff reviewed -- only the intended 9-line insertion into .github/dependabot.yml, nothing else touched
  • Config-only change, no application code/tests affected

typescript 7.x breaks this toolchain (DTS emit via tsup/rollup-plugin-dts
throws TS5101 baseUrl-deprecated-as-error, and typescript-eslint has no
TS7 support as of its latest 8.66.0 release). Dependabot has already
re-proposed and re-merged this exact breaking major bump after a prior
manual revert, since it has no memory of that revert. This adds a fleet-
wide ignore rule so Dependabot stops proposing typescript major bumps
until the toolchain catches up.
