Dependabot-X

Dependabot-X is a tool written in Python3 that allows GitHub Organization/User to automate enabling Dependabot alerts feature for all repositories.

Since GitHub currently allows system admins and individual developers to manually configure Dependabot for each repository, which takes time and effort, Dependabot-x can be used to automate the process.
