Hi @AlexisEspinosaGayosso , looks like you need to update the yaml because the checks are failing. Otherwise, happy to add this type of logic in. |

Nevermind. It seems that the configuration file is too restrictive and does not have the ignore option of defining specific files or directories to ignore. Therefore, my ideaa will never work. So this approach will never work and I will not pursue this anymore. Do not proceed with the PR. |

The current dependabot alerts refer to files that are not in the repository anymore, like:
hpc-python/std/requirements-27Aug2020.txt
hpc-python/hdf5mpi/requirements-27Aug2020.txt
hpc-python/hdf5mpi/requirements-19Mar2021.txt
hpc-python/std/requirements-19Mar2021.txt
But, as said, these files have already been removed from the repository. In order to solve this issue with Dependabot.
I'm proposing this configuration file that will then avoid scanning this specific files together with the /deprecated directories.
Once we see correct behaviour of Dependabot, the frequency for the "pip" ecosystem can be changed to "weekly"
