Probot: Stale
a GitHub Integration built with Probot that closes abandoned Issues and Pull Requests after a period of inactivity.
Inspired by @parkr's auto-reply bot that runs @jekyllbot.
Usage
- Configure the GitHub Integration
- Create
.github/stale.yml
A .github/stale.yml file is required to enable the plugin. The file can be empty, or it can override any of these default settings:
