Repo Command

A GitHub bot that automates repository management through commands and automatic labeling.

Features

Automatic Labeling

• Labels new PRs as "ready for review"
• Adds "approved" label when PR is approved
• Adds "changes requested" when changes are requested
• Adds "merged" label to merged PRs
• Adds "fixed" label to closed bug issues
• Adds "implemented" label to closed feature/enhancement issues

Commands

Use these commands in PR/issue comments:

• /approve - Approve a pull request
• /merge - Merge a pull request
• /close - Close an issue or pull request
• /wip - Mark as work in progress
• /label <name> - Add labels
