MergeMe
Take GitHub/GitLab code reviews directly to Slack.
Mirror every pull and merge request into Slack as a single, updating card per PR or MR. No notification spam, no broken @mentions, no tab juggling and most importantly - less time wasted while waiting for someone to review your work. Supports GitHub.com, GitLab.com & GitLab Self Hosted from day 1.
MergeMe (https://mergeme.dev/) kind of started off as a side project because I realised that there weren't any tools out there for GitLab.com or GitLab Self Hosted instances that could map MRs to Slack in the way that I wanted to.
I felt like the way Axolo (massive kudos to their product & the team behind it by the way) deals with it and opens a whole new channel for each MR was too much for me and so I went off to build something that I personally was going to be happy with.
The product slowly evolved as I kept adding "just one more feature" and eventually ended up at it's current stage where it supports GitHub.com, GitLab.com and GitLab Self Hosted instances all within the same MergeMe workspace. This means that you can route PRs & MRs from both your providers into the same Slack channels if you so wish to.
I also added (and am continually adding) customizations such as:
User mappings so that @maruan.alush in GitHub/GitLab actually mentions @maruan in Slack
Channel mappings so you can route your different repos to different Slack channels
Preferences such as hide/show draft PR/MRs, hide/show the PR/MR number & a user blocklist for those annoying Cursor replies
My first goal is that I want this tool to evolve to the point that you can set it up even in the most complex monorepos:
Label mapping to route PR/MRs with different labels to different channels - Done now
Self-host MergeMe - keep data on your own infra & bring your own SSO - In progress
User author mapping to route your infra engineers' PR/MRs directly to #infra-reviews
My second goal is that you can completely review a PR/MR all from the Slack thread itself. This means 1-1 mapping of comments & approvals from the Slack thread back to the code review page.
Other miscellaneous plans:
Get approved onto the Slack marketplace
Get approved onto the GitHub marketplace - In progress
Reminders for stale PR/MRs
Support self hosted GitHub (GHES)
Possibly support air gapped instances
Final words I hope this tool looks interesting to everyone & would highly suggest to try it out and see if it fits in with your team's flow. If you mainly use Slack to connect with each other then I would bet that MergeMe would be a great addition!

Who hunted MergeMe?
MergeMe was hunted by Maruan Alush. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
