gh - The GitHub CLI tool
gh is GitHub on the command line. It brings pull requests, issues, and other GitHub concepts to
the terminal next to where you are already working with git and your code.
Usage
gh pr [status, list, view, checkout, create]gh issue [status, list, view, create]gh help
Check out the [docs][] for more information.
Comparison with hub
For many years, [hub][] was the unofficial GitHub CLI tool. gh is a new project for us to explore
what an official GitHub CLI tool can look like with a fundamentally different design. While both
tools bring GitHub to the terminal, hub behaves as a proxy to git and gh is a standalone
tool.
