NAME
gh-alias-import - Import aliases from a YAML file
SYNOPSIS
gh alias import [<filename> | -] [flags]
DESCRIPTION
Import aliases from the contents of a YAML file.
Aliases should be defined as a map in YAML, where the keys represent aliases and the values represent the corresponding expansions. An example file should look like the following:
bugs: issue
list --label=bug
igrep: ’!gh issue list --label="$1" | grep
"$2"’
features: |-
issue list
--label=enhancement
Use - to read aliases (in YAML format) from standard input.
The output from gh alias list can be used to produce a YAML file containing your aliases, which you can use to import them from one machine to another. Run gh help alias list to learn more.
OPTIONS
--clobber
Overwrite existing aliases of the same name
