Props Bot is a GitHub Action that processes the activity on a pull request and any linked issues.

The bot attempts to associate each GitHub use account with a linked w.org one and outputs a formatted list of Co-authored-by trailers that can be copied and pasted into the merge commit message.

This bot is currently in the following repositories under the WordPress organization:
