In a private repository, what minimum requirements does GitHub need to generate a dependency graph? (Each answer presents part of the solution. Choose two.)
Suggested Answer: B,D Vote an answer
Configuring the dependency graph
[D] To generate a dependency graph, GitHub needs read-only access to the dependency manifest and lock files for a repository.
[B] Enabling and disabling the dependency graph
Repository administrators can enable or disable the dependency graph for all repositories owned by your user account, regardless of their visibility.
When the dependency graph is first enabled, any manifest and lock files for supported ecosystems are parsed immediately. The graph is usually populated within minutes but this may take longer for repositories with many dependencies. Once enabled, the graph is automatically updated with every push to the repository and every push to other repositories in the graph.
