Welcome to the MergeMe blog. We write about GitHub pull request and GitLab merge request notifications in Slack, especially for teams who outgrew the official GitHub and GitLab Slack apps.
What we'll cover
- Channel routing: send merge requests to the right Slack channel
- User mapping: fix broken
@mentionmapping between git and Slack - Label routing: route by GitLab labels or GitHub labels
- Self-hosted GitLab: webhook setup and troubleshooting
- Comparisons: honest feature diffs vs official apps and alternatives
How MergeMe is different
The official GitHub and GitLab Slack apps post a new message for every event. MergeMe keeps one updating card per PR/MR, edited in place, with thread replies for review comments.
MergeMe works with GitHub.com, GitLab.com, and self-hosted GitLab in one workspace. Setup takes about five minutes for cloud git hosts.
MergeMe is the Slack app for teams who needGitHub and GitLab reviews without the noise
