+# Renovate shared presets
+
+Presets makes rules easier to maintain and reusable across multiple repositories.
+
+# How to use a preset
+
+Reference the preset in the `extends` field of the `renovate.json` file in the repository.  
+Presets can reference other presets. (read more about [shared presets](https://docs.renovatebot.com/config-presets/))  
+
+```json
+{
+  "extends": [
+    "github>argoproj/argo-cd//renovate-presets/custom-managers/bash.json5"
+]
+}
+```
+
+### Note :
+
+It would make sense to move this folder to a new repository in the future.  
+
+Benefits:  
+- Avoids consuming the repository's CI/CD resources.  
+- Faster feedback loop for configuration changes.
+- Avoid polluting the master git history.  
+- The `renovate.json` in each repository can be simplified to only include a single presets :
+	```json
+	{
+	  "$schema": "https://docs.renovatebot.com/renovate-schema.json",
+	  "extends": [
+	    "github>argoproj/renovate-presets//argoproj/argo-cd/renovate.json5"
+	  ],
+	  // rules are empty and this file won't need to be modified again.
+	  "packageRules": []
+	}
+	```
+Inconvenient:  
+- Owners of a repository can impact the configuration of all repositories. Use codeowners to reduce the risk.  
+
+Example of repo structure :  
+```shell
+.
