This is a good idea. We will have to see how this interferes with our other tooling (see inline).

Can we have multiple directories here, resp. will this descend into e.g. https://github.com/key4hep/key4hep-actions/tree/main/workflows
I am asking because otherwise we will potentially have a ton of "stale by definition" PRs from the shared key4hep build action workflows that we distributed differently.
Or alternatively, can we exclude on file name patterns?

Right, if these files are centrally managed, then we don't need a central dependabot.yml. We maybe just need one in edm4hep?

Yeah maybe. But that then has the disadvantage that it will probably still try to update the centrally managed ones unless there is a way of excluding certain files.
