MCBot = Markdown Cleanup Github Bot
Here's how this thing works:
- First, you set up a Github bot account - the user that will do your bidding.
- Next, you create a Github OAuth account as that user. This OAuth application will ask users for various permissions. One of those permissions is the ability to commit to repositories.
- This is still totally unclear.
Useful: PR request hook (flask server) that comments on PRs from first-time contributors
