Description

good first issue help wanted r-ci

it isn't opening PRs for updates nor doing anything

encase 0.13 was released two days ago and it didn't do anything even though the workflow has ran twice

I think I'm missing something about how it works but for now it's simpler to not rely on it and do it ourselves

simply remove the file
