0.8.0

This release features new functionality as well as bug fixes. The new functionality largely focuses on making it easier to work with pull requests.

pull request and issue metadata

When creating pull requests and issues you can now select Add Metadata in the final prompt to assign reviewers, labels, and more. This metadata can also be added with flags instead of interactively. See gh help pr create or gh help issue create for more information.

pull request and issue state management

For example, you can now run:

gh pr close 123
gh pr reopen 123
