Supercharge your command line experience: GitHub CLI is now in beta
Blog post from GitHub
GitHub has launched the GitHub CLI in beta, providing a streamlined way for developers to interact with GitHub via the command line on macOS, Windows, and Linux, although it is currently not available for GitHub Enterprise Server. The CLI focuses on simplifying daily tasks such as handling issues and pull requests, allowing users to filter issues, view detailed bug descriptions, and create pull requests, which automatically handle forks and branch pushes. It also offers features like checking the status of pull requests and easily switching between branches to address requested changes, fostering a more efficient workflow. GitHub encourages feedback from users to enhance the CLI and aims to create an improved command-line experience for contributing to open-source projects, inviting suggestions through their open-source repository and feedback forms.
