Introduction

This OS X application can read your GitHub repositories and convert your GitHub issues to todoist tasks.

Translation

The translation is as follows:

• GitHub's repositories --> todoist projects
• GitHub's milestones --> todoist top level tasks
• GitHub's issues --> todoist subtasks under a top level task

If you don't use milestones and associate tasks with them the top-level task is called All. There is an option to create creates repository sub-tasks inside a single top level project. This allows users who are using the "community" version of Todoist to create sub-tasks for all their repositories inside a single task. 'Community' users are limited to 5 Todoist projects

Requirements

The application gathers the following:

• A GitHub API token
• Your GitHub username
• A Todoist API token

The instructions on how to acquire/generate these tokens are here.

I am concerned about GitHub's Copilot project

I urge you to read about the Give up GitHub campaign from the Software Freedom Conservancy.

While I do not advocate for all the issues listed there, I do not like that a company like Microsoft may profit from open source projects.

I continue to use GitHub because it offers the services I need for free. But I continue to monitor their terms of service.

Any use of this project's code by GitHub Copilot, past or present, is done without my permission. I do not consent to GitHub's use of this project's code in Copilot.
