Track Package.resolved so Dependabot can detect updates#14
Merged
Conversation
Dependabot's Swift ecosystem uses Package.resolved as the version baseline. With *.resolved excluded by .gitignore, the file was never committed, so Dependabot could only see the manifest requirement (from: "1.8.1") — not what was actually pinned — and never opened FP-update PRs even after several FP tags shipped. Removing the *.resolved exclusion and committing the current Package.resolved restores the baseline. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Dependabot's Swift ecosystem uses
Package.resolvedas the version baseline. With it excluded, Dependabot could only see the manifest requirement (from: \"1.8.1\") — never what was actually pinned — so FP updates published since 1.8.1 were never surfaced as PRs.Restoring the resolved file gives Dependabot something to diff against.
