GeekHub is a plugin made for Jetbrain’s IDEs, such as IntelliJ IDEA, RubyMine, PyCharm, PhpStorm, WebStorm, and Goland, allowing you to use GitHub on your editor as a ToolWindow. You can check, review, comment, merge pull requests, etc. all on your editor with a GUI.

What you can do with it

GeekHub shows a list of all the pull requests in a ToolWindow inside your IDE. By clicking on a certain pull request, you can check the content of it, and do certain actions such as merging, reviewing, checking out diffs, etc. The comments that correspond with the current local branch show up on your code.

Key Features

Make Comments via Line Markers

After opening files, you can comment on them by just clicking the pencil mark indicated on the left side of your code. lines with comments are automatically highlighted, and you can see the comments by either hovering your pointer above the lines or the yellow box on the right.

Checkout Branches

After choosing a pull request, just press the Checkout branch button on the right-top side to checkout a branch. Notice that the CurrentBranch button on the right-top side has been updated. Just click it to jump to the pull request page.
