How do I configure Github to only send notifications when I'm tagged

I have tried for 7 years to configure Github to only notify me:

Nothing else.

Whatever I do I end up getting either too much or too little notifications. Feels like there something I'am not seeing. There are so many checkboxes :) (I would prefer the slack github bot, but email also works)

thanks

Had the same question. It wasn't obvious at first, but there is a way to set up a Slack integration.

  1. Go to https://github.com/settings/reminders.
  2. Search for Scheduled reminders in the navigator (Integrations section).
  3. Click edit reminders for an organization (a pencil icon).
  4. Authorize your Slack workspace. Do not fill out the form below! It will be cleared after the space authorization. It will write you a personal message in Slack from the GitHub Slack bot.
  5. Set Days.
  6. Set Times (multiple select is available) for a time zone.
  7. Check Enable real-time alerts.
  8. In the new list below pick your notifications from your PR/comment/mentions/assignments.
  9. Create or update the reminder.

You can make a test run for the reminder if you have a pending PR. Just click a new button with a megaphone icon (near the pencil button).

Hope, this will help.
