    Dependabot drops support for Python 3.9

    Dependabot has officially ended support for Python 3.9, aligning with Python's own end-of-life for the version. This change means users still on Python 3.9 may encounter issues with Dependabot creating dependency update pull requests. Engineers are advised to upgrade to a supported Python release to ensure continued functionality.

About GitHub release tracking on ReleaseBytes

The GitHub changelog covers Actions, Copilot, code security, the API and the platform itself — dozens of entries a week. ReleaseBytes summarises each changelog entry and tags breaking changes and deprecations (like Actions runner image retirements and API sunsets) so platform teams catch them before workflows break.
