What it does
The GitHub bot connects your public GitHub repositories to Telegram. Once a repo is linked, the bot pushes notifications for commits, issues, pull requests, releases, and other events into any chat you choose, with support for posting comments back to GitHub directly from Telegram.
It is useful for developers who want to follow project activity in real time without leaving Telegram or installing the GitHub mobile app, and for teams that already coordinate inside Telegram groups.
