We have an automated Bot which marks pull requests as "stale" after a while, and ultimately automatically closes them.

Dependency Upgrades
-------------------

This project uses a number of 3rd-party libraries, and this section provides some guidance for their updates. We have set-up [Renovate's bot](https://renovate.whitesourcesoftware.com) to automatically raise Pull Requests for our review when new dependencies are available [FINERACT-962](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-962).

Upgrades sometimes require package name changes. Changed code should ideally have test coverage.

Our `ClasspathHellDuplicatesCheckRuleTest` detects classes that appear in more than 1 JAR. If a version bump in [`build.gradle`](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Ffineract+filename%3Abuild.gradle&type=Code&ref=advsearch&l=&l=) causes changes in transitives dependencies, then you may have to add related `exclude` to our [`dependencies.gradle`](https://github.com/apache/fineract/search?q=dependencies.gradle). Running `./gradlew dependencies` helps to understand what is required.
