The draft promised local>, which pays off only once the preset is mirrored. Today the mirrors are an empty private repo on Codeberg and nothing on GitLab, so a reader copying that line would get a broken config. Examples now use github>.

Adds the honest prerequisite: only GitHub.com has a hosted Renovate app. Every other forge needs it self-hosted β€” a Renovate ecosystem fact, not something this preset imposes.

Pinning moved up beside the basic example and points at v1.0.0. Marked draft: false.

The how-to promised local>, which resolves against whichever forge Renovate
runs on. That only pays off once the preset is mirrored, and the mirrors are
an empty private repo on Codeberg and nothing on GitLab. Switched the examples
to github> so a reader who copies them gets something that works.

Says plainly that only GitHub.com has a hosted Renovate app -- the largest
prerequisite, and the one a reader on another forge would otherwise discover
the hard way.

Pinning moved up next to the basic example, where someone deciding how to
adopt this will actually see it, and points at the v1.0.0 tag now that it
exists. Marked ready.
