Hello everyone,

I have added GitHub Actions (see https://github.com/features/actions) to
https://github.com/apache/fineract in
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-829:

New, added just now: https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/691 let us
(you, anyone) comment "/rebase" on any PR to have "git rebase" run on it.
You can see it used e.g. on https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/881.
This is very handy for both contributor and committers reviewing PRs to
more easily pick up other recently merged changes, instead of having to
locally rebase. The remote git branch is of course different than your
local one after you use /rebase on your PR.  (Note that travis already runs
2 builds, one of a PR "as-is", and another one building the PR merged
against develop. So /rebase is mostly useful to RE-run a build after other
PRs have been merged, if you need to pick something up. It's not required
just to see if there are merge conflicts - GitHub already figures and shows
that without /rebase.)

Another one we've already had for a while, so more of an FYI/reminder:
https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/692 will automatically comment "This
pull request seems to be stale. Are you still planning to work on it? We
will automatically close it in 30 days." to any PR that has been inactive
for 30 days. Initially it will only comment. Another 30 days later it will
without any reaction it will automatically close such stale PRs. They will
also have a label ("stale"), making it easy to find them again. I think 60
days is a reasonable timeframe for any contributor.

https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/880/files also proposes to add an
automated First Interaction welcome message - nice?

Best,
M.
