This is awesome. We the developers love to put those little comments in code for issues/to-dos and syncing it with Github is solid. looks like someone needs to fork it for Python ?

One question though. When an issue is resolved, would that actually go back to the source file and delete that inline comment OR would it add the text "resolved" etc. In both cases though, would we not need a new commit to that source file ? Or does it leave the inline comment in its original state ?

It currently leaves the inline comment in its original state. It didn't seem like a good idea to have an automated tool touch the code itself, watson leaves it up to the developer to remove the comment. The "resolved" tag only appears in the report when the issue is resolved on GitHub or Bitbucket to notify a user that they can either remove it or ignore working on that issue.
