Context

tracking issue: https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/issues/8763 Supersedes #13100

This is a breaking change which affects administrators running a self hosted instance which uses CLI or ENV for filter configuration and uses ,. e.g. this forces admins which uses minimatches like this project/{a,b,c,d,*-app} to migrate to regex ( /project/(a|b|c|d|.*-app)/ ) or to use a config file.

Does it even make sense to have more than one negation?

[viceice]

no, but users tend to think they can do it now. so we should document it's not possible.

I'm currently trying to use the list and the renovate-config-validator is saying that the array on my json file should be a string.

ERROR: config.json contains errors
       "errors": [
         {
           "topic": "Configuration Error",
           "message": "Configuration option `autodiscoverFilter` should be a string"
         }
       ]

Is this a problem with the validator, my config or just not available yet?

[viceice]

this isn't yet released, so you can't use it.

Is this gonna get merged anytime soon? I'm currently trying to set up a pretty big deployment of renovate and would like to use this feature asap
