Hey guys,

We are working on a mono-repo where the structure looks like that:

src/services/
                group-1/
                       service-A/
                              go.mod
                       service-B/
                              go.mod
                       service-C/
                              go.mod
                group-2/
                       service-D/
                              go.mod
                       service-E/
                              go.mod
                       service-F/
                              go.mod

etc....

I would like for renovate to group PRs per services (one per go.mod) or per group(one per folder)
But I fail to find any configuration option allowing me to do that.
For, renovate open a PR for the whole mono-repo and that require some sync to make those PRs merged

This is achievable using packageRules and parentDir. Hopefully at least one of these past issues here can be useful to getting you started: https://github.com/renovatebot/config-help/issues?q=is%3Aissue+parentDir+is%3Aclosed+

Hey @rarkins

It works. Thx a lot

I'm sharing my configuration if it can help others later.
