A simple GitHub action to create Pull Requests for your out-of-date dependencies in clojure projects. This action can automatically update the following dependency files:

• deps.edn
• shadow-cljs.edn
• project.clj
• build.boot
• pom.xml

This action uses antq to check dependencies.

• github-token: The only required argument. Can either be the default token, as seen above, or a personal access token with write access to the repository.
• branch: The branch that dependencies should be checked on and Pull Requests created against. Defaults to master
• git-email: The email address each commit should be associated with. Defaults to a github provided noreply address
• git-username: The GitHub username each commit should be associated with. Defaults to github-actions[bot]
• excludes: Artifact names to be excluded from the antq check. Defaults to an empty list. See antq-action for more information.
• directories: Directories to search for project files in. Defaults to the root of the repository. See antq-action for more information.
• skips: Build tools/files to skip by default. Defaults to an empty list. See antq-action for more information.
• batch: Updates all outdated dependencies in a single pull request. Set to "true" to enable

Special thanks to Chad Taylor for figuring out the initial bash script this is based on.
