"All but project-x-y" in implicit dependencies

[psteinroe]

Description

As far as the documentation tells me, we can define implicit dependencies either using * or listing the project names. It would be great if the syntax would support an exclude syntax, i.e.

"implicitDependencies": {
  "package.json": {
    "dependencies": "all-but-project-xy",
    "devDependencies": "*"
  },
},

Motivation

We have a few projects in our repository that are just docker files, hence no js code is written there. Using renovate to keep the dependencies up to date, we still run format, lint and test on these project, despite them not using any dependencies. Listing all other project explicitly is not feasible for us.

Suggested Implementation

Maybe support glob patterns?

Alternate Implementations

• Listing all projects explicitly
• Using jest test name pattern feature to exclude the respective tests when running the command.
