This seems likely to be noisy.

Not as noisy as the 37 supply chain security warnings at the bottom right of
https://github.com/dateutil/dateutil/actions/runs/9164291629

GitHub Actions have very infrequent major version changes. setup-python, the most frequent, has only had four major upgrades in its lifetime. Also, when they are upgraded, it often happens in batches. The pattern: * will consolidate all GHA updates into a single pull request to further reduce chattiness. See: rapidfuzz/RapidFuzz#362

There is a tradeoff between supply chain security and chattiness. This repo has few GHAs that are updated rarely and usually in batches and we are using pattern: * to ensure that there will only ever be a single GHA upgrade PR at a time.
