• Just install Pull app .

Pull app will automatically watch and pull in upstream's default (master) branch to yours using hard reset every few hours. You can also manually trigger it anytime.

1. Create a new branch.

2. Setup the new branch as default branch under repository Settings > Branches.

3. Add .github/pull.yml to your default branch.

   (behaves the same as Basic Setup)

   version: "1"
   rules:
    - base: master
    upstream: wei:master # change `wei` to the owner of upstream repo
    mergeMethod: hardreset

   Advanced usage

   version: "1"
   rules: # Array of rules
    - base: master # Required. Target branch
    upstream: wei:master # Required. Must be in the same fork network.
    mergeMethod: hardreset # Optional, one of [none, merge, squash, rebase, hardreset], Default: none.
    mergeUnstable: false # Optional, merge pull request even when the mergeable_state is not clean. Default: false
    - base: dev
    upstream: master # Required. Can be a branch in the same forked repo.
    assignees: # Optional
    - wei
    reviewers: # Optional
    - wei
    conflictReviewers: # Optional, on merge conflict assign a reviewer
    - wei
   label: ":arrow_heading_down: pull" # Optional
   conflictLabel: "merge-conflict" # Optional, on merge conflict assign a custom label, Default: merge-conflict

4. Go to https://pull.git.ci/check/${owner}/${repo} to validate your .github/pull.yml (Public repos only). See #234 for another way to validate it.

5. Install <img src="https://prod.download/pull-18h-svg" Pull Pull app .

Go to https://pull.git.ci/process/${owner}/${repo} to manually trigger pull. Note: Nothing will happen if your branch is already even with upstream.

For the most common use case (a single master branch), you can just direct users to install Pull with no configurations. If you need a more advanced setup (such as a docs branch in addition to master), consider adding .github/pull.yml to your repository pointing to yourself (see example). This will allow forks to install Pull and stay updated automatically.

Example (assuming owner is your user or organization name):

version: "1"
rules:
 - base: master
 upstream: owner:master
 mergeMethod: hardreset
 - base: docs
 upstream: owner:docs
 mergeMethod: hardreset
