As a means to make the dry-run functionality a little more useful, we can log out what commit(s) a given Renovate run would have created outside of Dry Run. Because the meta key `contents` is automagically replaced with `[contents]`, we need to move this into a new field, `rawContents`. This can also lead to longer lines being output, but provides additional utility that we've had requests for before.

Are we sure this can not be used to log secrets like .npmrc files? I'm a little worried about that.

I did give it a test with process.env.RENOVATE_TOKEN, and I found that it was still redacted
AFAIK, any fields being logged out are still sanitised for secrets
