Merge Freeze never has access to your codebase
Anyone in your team can temporarily block merging
Schedule recurring freezes so you can’t merge at certain times of the day, week or month.
Access the current Merge Freeze status of your repository or trigger a freeze using our API.
Freeze your repository with a simple /mergefreeze command.
Install our verified app through Oauth in the official Github Marketplace
We use Github to identify users since we need to access the Github API to see which repositories have the app installed.
The Github app needs to be installed on at least one repository in order for it to be useful.
Pick a branch in your repository that you’d like to protect with Merge Freeze (usually main/master).
Once you’ve added the app to your Slack workspace you will be prompted to pick a channel for the notifications to be sent to.
