A method for automatically merging e-mail replies containing reviewer comments to open source software code is disclosed. Individual reply messages may be identified for merger and evaluated for comments for each line of code. Comments, context information, and reviewer information may then be extracted and incorporated into a merged reply message where each line of code commented on contains comments associated with that line of code. The merged reply message may then be transmitted back to the sender with the incorporated comments.
