Edit-Command

[kronn]

This is a nice and useful extension to the github-cli.

I would like to see an edit or update-action which allows me to change the color, name, or description of a label. Just passing arguments for the fields I want to change and leaving the other unchanged seems like the simplest complete solution to me.

Sadly, I do not know go, so I just opened this issue

It's coming. 😄. I've been doing some refactoring to make it easier. I also plan on delete, import (import a list of labels - non-destructive, but considering a switch to allow deleting labels not in the list - probably should at least list them), and something like merge to make 1 or more repos like another - something we do a lot for the Azure SDK.

@kronn the binary itself hasn't been updated because, combined, they are already ~24MB, git stores full snapshots, and binaries don't compress well. The CLI team is discussing a long-term solution and I'd like to see what they say first - including about my short-term and general perf idea before I push the binaries.

If you have the Go toolset installed, once you run gh extension update gh-label you can cd into its directory and run ./build.sh.

With all the new commands I added, the total size of the builds/ directory is now 58MB. Even if I strip symbols it's still 51MB.

Wow, that is indeed a lot. When trying the command today, it downloaded the binary on demand. I am kinda curious how you solved it.

Also, the merge sounds like a great idea. For hitobito, I want something like it. Right now, I am fixing the color codes and making on-demand additions to the labels. For this, gh-label is nice tooling. I'll keep an eye on your releases.

It tries to find the last tag, find a release for it, and download the release binary for the appropriate platform.
