Developers who tire of manually pushing builds and releases to their repository of choice will be overjoyed to learn of Drone.io, a software solution that automatically pushes code at set intervals. The software seamlessly integrated with some of the most popular source code management systems, including Bitbucket, GitHub and GitHub Enterprise and more.
