PullTrace

PullTrace is an AI-powered tool that enables users to retrieve useful information from historical pull requests. The platform is designed to allow inquiries in natural language, simplifying the search for specific data or insights. PullTrace is beneficial in various areas of software development. It helps identify coding standards and best practices implemented by experienced developers, enhancing overall code quality and consistency. It can assist in debugging by identifying when and where a bug was introduced through examination of changes made in past pull requests. Additionally, it provides support during the onboarding of new team members by helping them understand code history and context, thereby speeding up their integration process. It also plays a role in security, enabling reviews of how past security vulnerabilities were addressed and resolved, thus offering insights into potential weaknesses. PullTrace respects user privacy and assures that it only accesses pull requests and commit data, not the code itself. It currently supports filtering on PR author, repository, and the date range in which the PR was merged, with plans for additional filters in the feature. This tool is notably featured for Git users, with potential support for Gitlab or Bitbucket in the future.
