Released on March 15, 2026, ghprmerge v0.3.0 brings a powerful new addition to your GitHub organization’s maintenance toolkit. This update introduces “Report Mode,” shifting ghprmerge from a purely action-driven tool to one that empowers maintainers to analyze their PR landscape before taking action.

What’s new

  • The report Command: A new read-only analysis mode. It scans your organization for open PRs that share the same source branch—perfect for spotting widespread dependency updates.
  • Precision Filtering: Use --source-branch-prefix to target specific types of updates (like dependabot/) and --min-group-size to filter out the noise.
  • Flexible Verbosity: Choose between brief, standard, or verbose output levels to get exactly the amount of detail you need, from simple counts to full PR titles.
  • Automation-Ready: All reports can be exported as JSON via the --json flag, making it easy to pipe this data into your own custom automation scripts.

Why it matters

Managing a large organization often means dealing with hundreds of automated PRs. Previously, merging was an “all-or-nothing” action. With Report Mode, you can now adopt an “analyze-then-act” workflow. You can identify which dependency updates are ubiquitous, see which ones are passing checks, and strategically target specific branches for merging, reducing the risk of bulk operations.

Getting started with v0.3.0

Upgrading to v0.3.0 is simple. You can download the latest binaries for Linux, macOS, or Windows from our GitHub releases page, or rebuild from source. This is a non-breaking update, so your existing merge and rebase workflows remain untouched.
