Please DO NOT push to this branch. See How to Help for instructions for working in the contrib module.
Problem/Motivation
Automatic Updates is one of Drupal Core current strategic initiatives
For full details of the initiative see #2940731: Automatic Updates Initiative overview and roadmap
Currently the work on the module is happening in 8.x-2.x branch of the Automatic Updates contrib module.
This issue is to bring in the current version of the 8.x-2.x branch of the contrib module into core as an Alpha level experimental module.
Proposed resolution
This merge request also includes the Package Manager module which it depends on from #3346707: Add Alpha level Experimental Package Manager module
The merge request on this issue is converted automatically from the 3.0.x branch of the contrib module.
Since this is will be a very large merge request we will continue to create issues and make improvements in the contrib module 3.0.x branch and convert that work via the conversion script to commits here. @tedbow or @phenaproxima will make the conversion daily if there are commits to the contrib module.
#3346707 will have to be committed first but this issue open so that reviewers of that issue can see the API of Package Manager in use by Automatic Updates
How to help
Feel free to leave feedback on this merge request. If you would like to help address the feedback please search the 3.0.x issue queue to see if any existing issue exists and if not create one in that project.
