Me: Oh no my clang tidy build on github is failing
Clang Tidy: Opsi just a small bug in me, update to clang-tidy-13

Me trying to upgrade:
We have a few of these issues including one from 4 days ago where Android gradle plugin's lint pass throws an unexcepted exception, so we can't upgrade it without disabling lint in CI or doing something like arbitrarily changing that code until it works.
Dependabot claims it's updating "gradle" when it updates the Android gradle plugin because it assumes the namespace is an arbitrary meaningless organization name instead of something meaningful required to understand the package's purpose.
Also, it opened the pull request on Monday because dependabot has bot union mandated weekends. There's no way to configure dependabot do anything on weekends so we get dependency updates late and sometimes I have a lot to do on Monday. I'm not kidding.
GitHub dependabot follows a strict 5 day work schedule. It has no configuration option to make it check on weekends:
https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/supply-chain-security/keeping-your-dependencies-updated-automatically/configuration-options-for-dependency-updates#scheduleinterval…
GitHub supports scheduling notifications to arrive during a certain schedule so the only explanation is that GitHub bots are unionized.
