GitConsensus automates pull request management. Developers can show their approval- or disapproval- using the built in Github reactions, and GitConsensus will merge or close the request based on the individual project rules.

Once installed each repository which should be managed by GitConsensus needs a .gitconsensus.yaml file to define the consensus rules used by the project. Repositories without this file will simply be ignored. A variety of example files exist to help get started, and these recommended consensus rules should be a great starting point for most projects.
