Hey,

it looks like it is not possible that a dependency appears in multiple groups. Instead it seems, if group definition have an overlap, the later one wins.

What I would like to achieve is, that renovate creates one PR with all updates available (that's possible by using the preset group:all) but also creates one PR for each configured group. Doing this I can decide whether I want to update all deps at once or only some of the groups.

Is this somehow possible?

Thanks for your quick answer @rarkins.

Any chance that this would be accepted as a feature request?

Yes, however it might be quite a complicated change so remain indefinitely open. Please start with a "Suggest an idea" Discussion describing how you think this could work (keeping in mind that most won't want this and we will keep default behavior)
