NAME¶

SYNOPSIS¶

OPTIONS¶

-f, --force

Skip the check for unpushed commits.

-m, --message=MESSAGE

The text up to the first blank line in MESSAGE is treated as the pull request title, and the rest is used as pull request description in Markdown format.

If multiple MESSAGE options are given, their values are concatenated as separate paragraphs.

--no-edit

Use the message from the first commit on the branch as pull request title and description without opening a text editor.

-F, --file=FILE

Read the pull request title and description from FILE.

-e, --edit

Further edit the contents of FILE in a text editor before submitting.

-i, --issue=ISSUE

Convert an issue to a pull request. ISSUE may be an issue number or a URL.

You can only convert issues that youve opened or that which you have admin rights over. In most workflows it isnt necessary to convert issues to pull requests; you can simply reference the original issue in the body of the new pull request.

-o, --browse

Open the new pull request in a web browser.

-c, --copy

Put the URL of the new pull request to clipboard instead of printing it.

-p, --push

Push the current branch to HEAD before creating the pull request.

-b, --base=BASE

The base branch in the "[OWNER:]BRANCH" format. Defaults to the default branch of the upstream repository (usually "master").

See the "CONVENTIONS" section of hub(1) for more information on how hub selects the defaults in case of multiple git remotes.

-h, --head=HEAD

The head branch in "[OWNER:]BRANCH" format. Defaults to the currently checked out branch.

-r, --reviewer=USERS

A comma-separated list of GitHub handles to request a review from.

-a, --assign=USERS

A comma-separated list of GitHub handles to assign to this pull request.

-M, --milestone=NAME

The milestone name to add to this pull request. Passing the milestone number is deprecated.

-l, --labels=LABELS

Add a comma-separated list of labels to this pull request. Labels will be created if they don`t already exist.
