Stale Issues

AbelHutten opened this issue · 6 comments

Many of the issues on this repository have not seen any activity for a long period (often years) yet they are still open. Inactive issues should be closed as stale.

Sure, if anyone wants to provide help here, I can provide privileges (if needed) for volunteers.

Sure, I am willing to help out.

It would also be possible to automate the removal of stale issues. For example, the Close Stale Issues action on the GitHub marketplace does the following:

Warns and then closes issues and PRs that have had no activity for a specified amount of time.

The configuration must be on the default branch and the default values will:

  • Add a label "Stale" on issues and pull requests after 60 days of inactivity and comment on them
  • Close the stale issues and pull requests after 7 days of inactivity
  • If an update/comment occur on stale issues or pull requests, the stale label will be removed and the timer will restart
