Rhys Arkins 598d57c315 feat: binarySource
Defaulting to ‘bundled’ (default behaviour), this option can be changed to ‘global’ if you wish Renovate to use globally installed npm, yarn, pnpm and lerna binaries. Note: composer always uses global regardless.

# Self-Hosted Configuration Options
The below configuration options are applicable only if you are running your own instance ("bot") of Renovate.
## autodiscover
Be cautious when using this option - it will run Renovate over _every_ repository that the bot account has access to.
## binarySource
Set this to 'global' if you wish Renovate to use globally-installed binaries (`npm`, `yarn`, etc) instead of using its bundled versions.
## endpoint
## exposeEnv
## force
This object is used as a "force override" when you need to make sure certain configuration overrides whatever is configured in the repository. For example, forcing a null (no) schedule to make sure Renovate raises PRs on a run even if the repository itself or its preset defines a schedule that's currently in active.
In practice, it is implemented by converting the `force` configuration into a `packageRule` that matches all packages.
## forceCli
This is set to true by default, meaning that any settings (such as `schedule`) take maximum priority even against custom settings existing inside individual repositories.
## forkMode
You probably have no need for this option - it is an experimental setting for the Renovate hosted GitHub App.
## gitAuthor
RFC5322-compliant string if you wish to customise the git author for commits.
## gitFs
This setting is experimental, and works for GitHub repositories only. If enabled, Renovate will `git clone` repos and use `git` for file operations such as creating branches and committing files.
## gitPrivateKey
## logFile
## logFileLevel
## logLevel
## mirrorMode
You probably have no need for this option - it is an experimental setting for the Renovate hosted GitHub App.
## onboarding
Set this to `false` if (a) you configure Renovate entirely on the bot side (i.e. empty `renovate.json` in repositories) and (b) you wish to run Renovate on every repository the bot has access to, and (c) you wish to skip the onboarding PRs.
## onboardingConfig
## password
## platform
## prFooter
## privateKey
## repositories
## requireConfig
## skipInstalls
By default, Renovate will use the most efficient approach to updating package files and lock files, which in most cases skips the need to perform a full module install by the bot. If this is set to false, then a full install of modules will be done. This is currently applicable to `npm` and `lerna`/`npm` only, and only used in cases where bugs in `npm` result in incorrect lock files being updated.
