CAVEATS
GitHub and Gitea treat Pull Requests as Issues. Due to the semantics of gcli those issues that are actually PRs are dropped from the output. In this case a note will be printed indicating how many issues were dropped. You can suppress this warning using the -q program option.
BUGS
GitHub only supports removing labels from issues one by one. If you still want to remove multiple issues with a single gcli call, you may do something like:
$ gcli issues
-i42 \
labels remove bug \
labels remove foo
Please report bugs via E-Mail to ˜herrhotzenplotz/gcli-discuss@lists.sr.ht .
Alternatively you can report them on any of the forges linked at https://herrhotzenplotz.de/gcli. However, the preferred and quickest method is to use the mailing list. gcli 2.3.0 2024-May-25 GCLI-ISSUES (1)
