Installation from source

0. Verify that you have Go 1.13+ installed

   $ go version
   

   If go is not installed, follow instructions on the Go website.

1. Clone this repository

   $ git clone https://github.com/cli/cli.git gh-cli
   $ cd gh-cli
   

2. Build and install

   # installs to '/usr/local' by default; sudo may be required
   $ make install
   

   To install to a different location:

   $ make install prefix=/path/to/gh
   

   Make sure that the ${prefix}/bin directory is in your PATH.

3. Run gh version to check if it worked.
