Enable Stale bot for GCClassic, GCHP, geos-chem, and HEMCO repositories #24

Closed msulprizio closed 3 years ago

msulprizio commented 3 years ago

This repository (GCST-internal) utilizes the Stale bot app to automatically close older issues with no activity for 60 days. The GCST agrees this would be useful to implement in our other repositories.

Slack message from Liam:

There's a bot called "No Response" that will close issues if the opener doesn't respond to a "more-information-needed" label. So if we got an issue that was e.g. missing log files we could ask for the log files and mark it as "more-information-needed" (until they respond with the log files)

Configuration files for both the stale and no-response bots have been added to the GCClassic, GCHp, geos-chem, HEMCO, and GCPy repositories in the latest dev branches. These apps won't become active until these changes are merged into the main branches of those repositories.

I also added new tags to those repo — they are stale, never stale, and more information needed. Use never stale to tell the stale bot to ignore inactivity on a given issue. Use more information needed to tag a user issue where we’ve requested more information/files… if users don’t respond within 14 days the issue will automatically close with a message from the no-response bot.
