Please tell us more about your question or problem

Hello, I have q renovate bot that scans a large collection of GHE repos, and renovate does a fantastic job creating the PR's with new dependencies detected, but each PR triggers a CI/CD pipeline execution causing resource contention as the PR creation pace goes faster than the CI/CD system autoscaling.

Is there a way to throttle or pause the renovate bot execution between GHE repos? for example, when the bot completes PR's for one GHE repo, wait X minutes before starting to process the next GHE repo? Certainly I'm open to other suggestions as well. I did look discussion #14500 but is a different situation as in that case, the problem is multiple PR's created for the same GHE repo, but I don't same that problem, a typical execution is one PR per GHE repo.

thanks

I don't think there's any solution for that today. Please "Suggest an idea" with proposed syntax and logic
