Abstract
This invention discloses an apparatus and method for automating pull request merging. One embodiment of the automated pull request merging method may include the following steps: receiving a first pull request corresponding to code changes in a first branch; verifying whether the first pull request meets preset state conditions based on information included in the first pull request; and, if the first pull request meets the state conditions, merging the code changes corresponding to the first pull request into a base branch according to a preset merging method.
