Hello!

We have a Java project with several sub-modules within it, each having their own pom.xml files and it's own versioning. As part of our pipeline, after building this project it's released with a timestamp of the time of deploy, so, for example, an artifact would be 1.0.0-20241128- instead of only 1.0.0. This is causing renovate to consider the sub-modules as dependencies to be updated.

Is it possible to ignore all of these sub-modules dependencies? Currently we are using the ignoreDeps option, but this did not allow the usage of regex to add all sub-modules at once, so we would have extra effort every time we add a new sub-module.

Thanks for your help!

Yes, use a package rule matching against that project or project patterns, and use allowedVersions to control which pattern of versions are allowed (using regex)
