+Currently this setting supports `helmv3`, `npm`, `nuget`, `maven`, `pep621` and `sbt` only, so raise a feature request if you have a use for it with other package managers.
 Its purpose is if you want Renovate to update the `version` field within your package file any time it updates dependencies within.
 Usually this is for automatic release purposes, so that you don't need to add another step after Renovate before you can release a new version.
