Dependabot version updates now support the Deno ecosystem

GitHub has extended Dependabot version updates to support the Deno ecosystem, according to a June 9, 2026 entry in the GitHub Changelog. This means that repositories using Deno can now leverage Dependabot to automatically check for and create pull requests to update their dependencies. The feature covers Deno's module system, which differs from npm, enabling developers to keep their Deno projects up-to-date without manual intervention. This addition broadens Dependabot's ecosystem support, which already includes npm, pip, Maven, and others. The announcement does not specify which Deno module registries or formats are supported, nor does it detail any configuration changes required. However, it indicates that Dependabot's existing version update workflow now applies to Deno, allowing users to enable it via the repository's settings or Dependabot configuration file.
