Planning a project of any kind can be time-consuming. This is especially true in the development sphere, where details are often of critical importance. At a minimum, planning a project tends to involve setting objectives, defining timeframes, and specifying tasks to be performed. GitHub Issues accommodates these actions and more

Freezing your GitHub repository could mean a lot of things. In that case, I'm not talking about putting it on ice or sending it to GitHub's Artic Code Vault. No, that's not the point here. As controlling the merge flow becomes increasingly important, many

If you never heard of Phabricator, you might not be alone. I admit I only started to hear about it recently, while the project started in 2010. Phabricator is essentially a forge, a suite of web-based developments collaborators tools, including multiple tools to do code reviews, track bugs or browse

Handling commits and branches is at the core of a developer’s efforts when they use Git as a version control system. Whether you’re working locally and preserving changes for later inclusion in another branch via a merge or managing a remote repository with many different contributors, the need

Merge queues are a core component of Mergify. We implement new features regularly to provide new use possibilities. Their core mechanics also need to be adapted to support such evolutions. While testing and ensuring that any pull request fits perfectly into the main branch, time is a dimension that can
Technical
As you may guess, Mergify relies a lot on third-party APIs like the Stripe API [https://stripe.com/docs/api] or the GitHub API [https://docs.github.com/en/rest] and their behavior. Like any third-party service, we need to deal with many things to ensure our integration never breaks.
Basic Knowledge
A pull request makes communication, edits, and debugging more manageable through separate repositories that receive updates from the main repository. Enacting a pull request, though, can be time-consuming. Fortunately, developers can streamline the cumbersome process via pull request automation. Find out how you can expedite daily workflow through an intuitive

There isn’t a universal formula for software developer efficiency. If there were, sprint cycles wouldn’t be so chaotic with the next deadline always looming like a dark cloud. There are, however, tried and proven strategies for maximizing efficiency in software development. Consider these implementations for your next sprint
