Re: Pull request template for github mirror

[Lasse Schuirmann <lasse schuirmann gmail com>]

Hi,

I just spoke with aruiz and ebassi on IRC and quickly cooked up a
small autoresponse for you. Is there any volunteer repository for
testing?

I've already tested it on one of my repositories and it works. Guide
to activation:

1. Go to app.gitmate.io
2. Login with an account that has admin access to the GNOME mirror repository
3. Click on add repositories and click on each repository, wait for
the green acknowledgement to pop up.
4. Go to the configuration page, deactivate all the GitMate features
and activate the PR autoresponse feature, fill in the text you want in
the autoresponse.

GitMate will then perform the autoresponse on every opened or
resynchronized (pushed) PR using the user you authenticated at
GitMate. (I usually log into GitHub with my gitmate-bot account to
make sure it's clear to everyone that it's a bot at work here and not
me.)

On long term we can for sure plan cool things like keeping PRs and BZ
issues in sync, if you want I can add a feature to auto close PRs.
