Hi! I'm on the team building GitHub CLI. We're definitely eager for your feedback on what things feel like they're missing, and especially if something is broken or doesn't feel stable or reliable. Feel free to open an issue if there's anything that stands out.

The different homebrew installation you referred to is because `gh` isn't part of homebrew/core yet as it's very new. So we'll be adding it in the coming months, but for now that's just a way for us to maintain our own tap and still provide an easy install/upgrade path.




I use "hub browse" a lot. It's a really quick way to open a local directory's Github repo.

Unfortunately, it's quite limited. No way to open a specific file, for example, or jump to a specific branch other than the current one.

I'd love to have something like "gh open".

It's been part of homebrew/core for something like two weeks: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formul...


Thanks for the shout! That was a community contribution and I totally missed it! It was an outdated version, but should now be updated to the latest 0.5.4. Really appreciate you sharing this. :)


Congratulations on shipping!

Just installed it on fedora using dnf and tried my usual git commands using hub instead. So far so good. I haven't tried any hub specific features yet though.

It is nice that I can just dnf install hub


Thanks! I'm definitely curious what you think when you start venturing into creating and checking out PRs in particular, and how we're managing the `pr status` and `issue status` commands in terms of what's shown vs. what you expect or would like to see to get the most relevant context.
