We'll want to merge it. Would be nice to have an automatic notification and ticket for it.

Just got this wei/pull GitHub Action from an email I receive with GitHub repos. What do you think?

Interesting... nice find. For starters I'll try it out on meowsbits/core-geth just to see what it's like..

I like that:

  • it's an automatic way to put work in front of us
  • it will make merges (and their conflict resolutions) transparent and reviewable

Yes, I remembered that I have a request for such a package somewhere and searched at our issues. Seems to be what we need.

I would try to hook into the release branches of go-ethereum if it's not possible to use tags.

The other kind of crazy idea is to do 1:1 PRs... :grimacing: :neckbeard:

:) My only worry would be that we will have to handle a tone of PRs. Except if we make a new branch (not master) where it will merge the PRs automatically, except if conflicts exist
