Bors-NG is a self-hosted GitHub bot that implements a merge queue workflow, testing batches of pull requests together on a staging branch before landing them on main so the main branch never breaks. It is written in Elixir and is now deprecated in favor of GitHub's built-in merge queue, though bug fixes are still merged.
Use cases
- keep the main branch always green with tested merges
- batch multiple pull requests into one merge queue test run
- avoid semantic merge conflicts between passing PRs
- automate merge-on-green workflow for GitHub pull requests
- self-host a merge bot for a GitHub organization
- test PR combinations before publishing to main
When to choose
- you are on an older GitHub plan without access to merge queues
- you need a self-hosted merge queue with batch testing
- your team wants bors-style r+/try commands on GitHub PRs
When to avoid
- you can use GitHub's built-in merge queue feature
- you need a project with active feature development
- you don't use GitHub for pull requests
