Slack-Bitbucket Merge Control is a Chrome extension that enhances the integration between Slack and Bitbucket. It reads messages from designated Slack channels, allowing users to control the availability of the merge button on Bitbucket pull request pages. The extension is beneficial for teams that rely on Slack for communication and Bitbucket for version control, ensuring that merges are only possible when specific criteria in Slack messages are met.

The extension features a user-friendly popup that displays the current status of the merge button along with the latest message from Slack that influenced this status. This allows developers and team members to easily understand the context around merge permissions, fostering better collaboration and decision-making within development workflows.
