I'm new to git and I'd like to be able to map plans and progress for my project through github.
The problem is, that requires lots of clicking around with a browser on github.com, and I'd like to be able to automate the task somewhat by using a command line program.
Is there a command line interface for github?
All you have to do is load Command Prompt (Load the Start menu, then click "Run", type cmd and hit enter), then you can use Git commands as normal.
On GitHub.com, navigate to the main page of the repository. Above the list of files, using the Add file drop-down, click Upload files. Drag and drop the file or folder you'd like to upload to your repository onto the file tree.
There's a ghi
gem that you can use to manage issues.
The most commonly used ghi commands are: list List your issues (or a repository's) show Show an issue's details open Open (or reopen) an issue close Close an issue edit Modify an existing issue comment Leave a comment on an issue label Create, list, modify, or delete labels assign Assign an issue to yourself (or someone else) milestone Manage project milestones
You could check out this cli for the Github issues API. Note this is specific to Github Issues only.
Hope this helps.
[edit] The original answer mentioned this application which doesn't function anymore and recommends ghi
.
With Github's new official CLI (command line interface):
gh issue create --title "How to create an issue?" --body "I need a github CLI"
