NAME¶
gcli comment —
Comment on tickets in git forges
SYNOPSIS¶
gcli comment |
[-y] [-o
owner -r
repo] [-i
issue | -p
PR] [-R
comment] |
DESCRIPTION¶
gcli comment can be used to add
comments in the discussion under issues and pull requests on
git(1) forges such as GitHub, GitLab and Gitea. Note that
PRs are treated as issues on GitHub and Gitea, making the
-i and -p flags exchangeable
without changing the overall effect of creating the comment.
gcli comment will open an editor, either
specified in your environment through EDITOR or the
one set in your global config file to enter the comment. See
gcli(1).
OPTIONS¶
-o,--ownerowner- Comment in the repository of the given owner. This option can only be used
in combination with
-r. -r,--reporepo- Comment in the given repository. This option can only be used in
combination with
-r. -y,--yes- Do not ask for confirmation before submitting the comment. Assume yes.
-i,--issueissue- Create the comment under issue #issue.
-p,--pullpr- Create the comment under PR #pr.
-R,--in-reply-tocomment- Create a reply to the comment with ID comment. This will put the refenced comment prefixed with “> ” into the response file for you to edit.
EXAMPLES¶
Comment under PR #11 in the upstream repository:
$ gcli comment -p 11
Comment under issue 1 in herrhotzenplotz/gcli:
$ gcli comment -o herrhotzenplotz -r gcli -i 1

BUGS¶
There is no way to preview the markdown markup, however you can input markdown which will be rendered on the remote site.
Please report bugs via E-Mail to https://lists.sr.ht/~herrhotzenplotz/gcli-discuss.
Alternatively you can report them on any of the forges linked at https://sr.ht/~herrhotzenplotz/gcli. However, the preferred and quickest method is to use the mailing list.
