Drawbacks

1. Creating a PR also temporarily creates a folder ( gets deleted after job ) which generates only package-lock ( Takes time but better than completing cloning or installing all the node_modules) PS: Look at src/lib/lockFileGenerator.ts // FIXED

   BEFORE

   

   AFTER

   

2. The changes are committed to a static branch name where error might arise if branch already exists PS: Look at src/lib/generatePR.ts // FIXED

   BEFORE

   AFTER
