Should we move it to .github/renovate.json as in the crystal repo? is that location picked up directly or we need to setup something else?

[straight-shoota]

Yeah, it probably makes sense to use the same configuration anywhere. That path should be picked up automatically.

I didn't have time to pick this up for all the repositories. We might want some customization to the standard configuration. I'd suggest to wait until someone can do a round on all pending configurations for Renovate (probably me, probably in January).
