Bors

Bors is a merge bot for GitHub that automates the process of merging pull requests in a safe and controlled manner. It ensures that all tests pass on the master branch by creating a temporary merge commit and running continuous integration checks before finalizing the merge. This helps maintain a stable and deployable codebase by preventing broken builds from being merged.

Also known as: bors-ng, bors bot, merge bot, bors-ng bot, bors github bot
🧊Why learn Bors?

Developers should use Bors when working on collaborative projects with multiple contributors to enforce a 'never break master' policy and reduce integration issues. It is particularly useful for open-source projects, large teams, or any codebase where maintaining a stable main branch is critical, as it automates the merge process and ensures all tests pass before changes are integrated.
