How to specify updates for only patches and minors for all packages?

According to the docs (https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/supply-chain-security/keeping-your-dependencies-updated-automatically/configuration-options-for-dependency-updates#specifying-dependencies-and-versions-to-ignore), it should be possible to only allow package updates for some semver ranges.

I've tried with the ignore option, but that had the result that there wasn't a single package eligible for updating.

ignore:
  - dependency-name: ".*"
    update-types: ["version-update:semver-major"]

Now I'm trying the other way around, with allow, but that doesn't seem to work either:

allow:
  - dependency-name: ".*"
    update-types: ["version-update:semver-minor", "version-update:semver-patch"]

Also, for some reason I can't use dependency-name: "*" due to not being a valid regex? So I've tried with ".*"

I'm guessing this issue is related?
