This Chrome extension changes GitHub's Pull Request (PR) terminology to GitLab's Merge Request (MR) terminology when browsing GitHub.
- Replaces "Pull Request" with "Merge Request" etc
- Replaces "PR" with "MR"
- Works across GitHub pages
- Updates dynamically as content changes
- Optional popup to enable/disable the extension
- Clone or download this repository
- Open Chrome and go to
chrome://extensions/ - Enable "Developer mode"
- Click "Load unpacked" and select the extension directory
The extension uses content scripts to replace PR terminology with MR terminology in text nodes and attributes of elements on GitHub pages. It also uses a MutationObserver to handle dynamic content changes.

Rewrite it in Rust.
This is mostly a fun/joke project. I can't promise responsiveness or maintenance. I barely use it myself — but who knows, it might grow on me.
