What would you like to do?

Hi, is there a possibility to have different schedule for branch creation and MRs being created (with prCreation: not-pending) I.e. we have a lot of repositories we want to check - It would be great if the branches could have been pushed "at every time" (limited only by theprCommitsPerRunLimit so we won't overwhelm the CI server (branch push triggeres a gitlab pipeline), but the MRs will be created only i.e. weekends only - so we don't disturb the developers too often?

When I set the schedule and i am outside the window, Renovate doesn't do anything with message Skipping branch creation as not within schedule

We don't currently have planned any capability for multiple schedules, but I think https://github.com/renovatebot/renovate/issues/4866 would work for you anyway because it seems like you don't really want a schedule for commits - just MRs. So once that feature is landed, we could make sure that branch-creation is something you can configure to be outside of schedule.

Yes, that would work for me 🙂 Thanks for the info, i will watch that issue
