 Like before, you need to manually work out which dependency caused it - assuming you guess correctly that it was a new dependency version at fault - and pin it manually by editing `package.json` one dependency at a time.
 
 Alternatively, if you were instead pinning `foobar` then you would get a PR for `foobar@1.2.0` which awaits your approval.

 If you did not catch the fault before merging, you are still better off with a pinned version.
 If you discover something wrong in production, you can easily "roll back" commits in your development environment until you find which rollback fixes the problem.

-## Looking up Release Notes

 When Renovate creates Pull Requests, its default behavior is to locate and embed release notes/changelogs of packages.
 These release notes are fetched from the source repository of packages and not from the registries themselves, so if they are private then they will require different credentials.
 
 When it comes to open source, most packages host their source on `github.com` in public repositories.
 GitHub greatly rate limits unauthenticated API requests, so you need to configure credentials for `github.com` or the bot will get rate limited quickly.

 What all this means is that Renovate will only automerge at most one branch/PR per target branch per run, before you need to wait for the next run.
