* Configure Renovate to keep Python at 3.10 for docs workflow This change adds a packageRule to `renovate.json` to prevent Renovate from updating the Python version used in the `.github/workflows/docs.yml` GitHub Actions workflow. The rule specifically targets the `python-version` input of the `actions/setup-python` step and restricts allowed versions to `<3.11`, effectively pinning it to `3.10` for now. * 🦉 Updates from OwlBot post-processor See https://github.com/googleapis/repo-automation-bots/blob/main/packages/owl-bot/README.md * Update renovate.json * 🦉 Updates from OwlBot post-processor See https://github.com/googleapis/repo-automation-bots/blob/main/packages/owl-bot/README.md * adds files to excludes lists * 🦉 Updates from OwlBot post-processor See https://github.com/googleapis/repo-automation-bots/blob/main/packages/owl-bot/README.md * Update owlbot.py * adds packageRule about pyproject.toml --------- Co-authored-by: google-labs-jules[bot] <161369871+google-labs-jules[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Owl Bot <gcf-owl-bot[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>
