Как установить GitHub CLI (gh): auth login, clone, issues и pull requests

Поставить gh, войти, клонировать репо, создать issue и PR из терминала.

GitHub CLI (gh) brings login, clone, issues, and pull requests into the terminal—handy beside git and scripts. This guide covers install on macOS/Linux/Windows, gh auth login, gh repo clone, gh issue create, and gh pr create for hereink readers who live in the shell.

The query is how to install GitHub CLI gh auth login clone repo create issue and pull request. You should finish with gh installed, GitHub.com authenticated, one repo cloned, and both an issue and a PR created from the CLI.

Upstream: github.com/cli/cli, docs at cli.github.com. Run gh --version after install.

Установка GitHub CLI

1. 1
   macOS (Homebrew)

   brew install gh. Verify with which gh and gh --version.

2. 2
   Linux

   Debian/Ubuntu: add the official apt repo from cli.github.com, then sudo apt install gh. Fedora: sudo dnf install gh. Tarballs on GitHub Releases for other distros.

gh auth login

Authenticate before first use:

gh auth login
# Typical GitHub.com flow:
# Account → GitHub.com
# Protocol → HTTPS or SSH (match your git remotes)
# Auth → Login with a web browser (recommended) or paste a token
# Browser completes OAuth → ✓ Logged in

Check with gh auth status. For GitHub Enterprise Server, pick the hostname when prompted—see official gh auth login docs.

gh repo clone

gh repo clone cli/cli
cd cli

gh repo clone owner/repo my-folder
gh repo clone owner/repo -- --depth=1

Same as git clone but short names work: gh repo clone owner/repo. Private repos require gh auth login and read access.

gh issue create

cd your-repo

gh issue create --title "Fix login timeout" --body "Steps to reproduce…"
gh issue create

gh issue create --title "Docs: gh guide" --label documentation --assignee @me

List and view: gh issue list, gh issue view 123. Confirm git remote -v points at the repo where you want the issue.

gh pr create

1. 1
   Branch and push

   git checkout -b fix-docs, commit, then git push -u origin fix-docs.

2. 2
   Open the PR

   gh pr create --title "Fix docs" --body "Summary", or run gh pr create interactively.

3. 3
   Options

   --draft, --reviewer user1,user2, --base main. Inspect with gh pr list, gh pr view, gh pr checkout 42.

Подходит

Daily dev, open source, automation beside git, ripgrep, and HTTPie.

Не подходит

Local-only repos with no GitHub remote; rich review UI still often needs the browser.
