Closed this issue 6 years ago · 6 comments

Should work like "gi new", but load the issue file

Sounds like a worthwhile addition. Would you like to implement and document it?

Answer 2 · 2018-06-05T23:11:01.000Z

Is it expected that this would change the sha of the issue? Or would it keep the sha and make changes in the issues repo?

Answer 3 · 2018-06-06T05:08:03.000Z

The issue's identifier is its number (as is a branch's name), not its SHA. So yes the SHA can change.

When you say "its number", do you mean, for example, the first line of this output? (taken from git issues show [id], where id came from git issues list.

I was under the impression that we also stored sequence numbers. Apparently we don't. For GitHub issues integration #27 we'll need that. This also solves the editing problem.

@dspinellis Perhaps this can be closed now. (Also, happy 100 commits 🎉 )
