Gitar builds end-to-end developer tooling to fix tech debt and deliver high quality code.

Gitar Bot connects to your repositories to create PRs that clean stale feature flags from your code. In this early access release, users explicitly invoke Gitar Bot by commenting on any Github issue providing the flag name and the final flag value. Gitar Bot then creates a PR that cleans up the flag by replacing it with its final value and cleaning the resulting code. The final release will integrate with different feature flag products and continuously create PRs as soon as the feature flag system identifies flags as stale.

Features:

• Automated Pull Requests that clean up stale feature flags
• Deep cleanups that remove code that is dead due to stale flags
• Supports major programming languages and frameworks
• Streamlined integration with GitHub Issues for convenient flag removal
• [Release version] Integration with feature flag products for continuous flag removal
