Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
README is minimal and doesn't fully document behavior beyond basic help output.
Lewinb is a command-line tool that closes pull requests on GitHub. Instead of manually going to GitHub's website, opening a pull request, and clicking the merge or close button, you can run a single command from your terminal to merge or close a PR. The tool works by taking three pieces of information: the owner of the repository (usually your username or organization name), the name of the repository, and the pull request number. You run lewinb_merge with these details, and it handles the rest. The README doesn't spell out exactly what happens after you run the command, but based on the name and purpose, it appears to merge or finalize the pull request automatically. This is useful if you're managing a lot of pull requests and want to speed up your workflow, especially if you're already working from the command line. A developer or maintainer might use this when they're reviewing code and want to quickly merge approved changes without switching to a browser. It could also be helpful in automation scripts or CI/CD pipelines where you want to programmatically handle pull requests without manual GitHub interaction. The project is written as a Jupyter Notebook and distributed via pip, which means it's relatively lightweight and easy to install. However, the README is quite minimal, it doesn't explain the full range of what the tool can do or provide detailed examples beyond the basic help output.
