Supercharge Your Pull Requests with Reviewpad Check!
Auto-Approval & Merge Policy
With this policy, you can automatically approve and merge pull requests based on the authors,
the type of changes made and also the result of CI checks.
You can customize the policy for different authors, file patterns, and CI checks.
This streamlines the pull request process to reduce the time to merge and increase
the delivery speed of your team.
Template Policy
This template policy automatically approves pull requests authored by trusted bots and principal engineers. Also, it automatically approves pull requests with changes that considered low risk based on their file paths. It uses groups to combine existing GitHub users, CI checks and file patterns. When the pull request is authored by a trusted bot, Reviewpad waits for the mandatory checks to finish and automatically merges if they are successful.groups:
- name: trusted-bots
