This package consists of a set of packages that are responsible for executing a particular command/feature/operation. The full list of features can be viewed here. The commands implement the common interface:
type Command interface {

- Communicate with GitLab Rails using gitlabnet package. For example, it can be checking whether a client is authorized to execute this particular command or asking for a personal access token in order to return it to the client.
