You can get users' attention by sending them messages--in a manner of
speaking. If you write a note, in a commit message or a comment on any
issue, pull request or commit comment on the website, and include a user's
name with an @ in front of it, e.g. @telemachus (my username), then that
user will see it through the web interface.
I'm not sure what the equivalent is on other code hosting sites that you're
familiar with, but if you're looking for something like a button to send
a user an email, I don't think that GitHub or Bitbucket has that.
Hope this helps, Peter
