Description & motivation
What?
For issues that have been open for awhile without activity, label
them as stale with a warning that they will be closed out. If
anyone comments to keep the issue open, it will automatically
remove the stale label and keep it open.
Stale label rules:
awaiting_response
,more_information_needed
-> 90 daysgood_first_issue
,help_wanted
-> 360 days (a year)tech_debt
-> 720 (2 years)Why?
To keep the repo in a clean state from issues that aren't relevant anymore
When?
Once a day
