 Description   

Auto-discovery:

  • no ongoing configuration
  • might make it way more expensive (tons of repos to scan)
  • might create configuration PRs in every single repo (to test out with local instance)

Manually-maintained list of target modules:

  • no risk of wide impact when misconfigured
  • manual work involved with every new project that wants the bot

We maintain a whitelist and that's fine, there aren't that many projects. When using auto-discovery, though, Renovate would have to scan many repositories. We should probably avoid that.
