executed before a commit is made by Renovate.
Post-upgrade tasks are commands that are executed by Renovate after a dependency has been updated but before the commit is created. The intention is to run any other command line tools that would modify existing files or generate new files when a dependency changes.

Each command must match at least one of the patterns defined in allowedCommands (a global-only configuration option) in order to be executed. [Our configuration](https://gitlab.developers.cam.ac.uk/uis/devops/infra/gitlab-bots-deployment/-/blob/main/renovatebot-config.js?ref_type=heads#L97) is set up such that it can call scripts in the `./.renovate/` directory in the root that start with `post-upgrade*`.
