{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Adopting project workflow to new GitHub features","articleBody":"At the @nodejs/ctc meeting yesterday, @ChALkeR brought up the possibility of using some of the [new GitHub tools and features](https://github.com/blog/2256-a-whole-new-github-universe-announcing-new-tools-forums-and-features) to assist the workflow of landing code in this repository.\n\nI'm particularly interested in whether the GitHub pull request approval feature might help us make things more robust. First, unlike leaving an \"LGTM\" comment, an approval gets removed if the code changes after the approval is made. I think that's a Good Thing (although others may find it irksome for small fixes perhaps?).\n\nI wonder if approvals might make it reliable to use tools (like I believe @evanlucas has been working on) to generate the metadata for a pull request. I imagine searching comments for the string \"LGTM\" is imperfect. But it seems likely a list of approving collaborators can be obtained reliably from an API call.\n\nI'm not sure what other features @ChALkeR or others might have in mind too. So, yeah, opening an issue for discussion. @nodejs/collaborators \n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Trott","@type":"Person","name":"Trott"},"datePublished":"2016-09-15T21:00:14.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":9},"url":"https://github.com/8554/node/issues/8554"}
