```

## 🚀 Quick start
### Installation
Install the base package
```bash
pip install gibr
```
or if you use `uv`
```
uv tool install gibr
```
#### 🧩 Optional dependencies
`gibr` supports multiple issue trackers, but you only need to install the dependencies for the ones you actually use.

Each tracker’s client library is an optional extra.

| Tracker    | Extra name | Install command                                                    |
|------------|------------|------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| GitHub     | `github`   | `pip install "gibr[github]"` or `uv tool install --with github gibr` |
| GitLab     | `gitlab`   | `pip install "gibr[gitlab]"` or `uv tool install --with gitlab gibr` |
| Jira       | `jira`     | `pip install "gibr[jira]"` or `uv tool install --with jira gibr`     |
| Azure      | `azure`    | `pip install "gibr[azure]"` or `uv tool install --with azure gibr`   |
| Linear     | built-in   | N/A                                                                |
| Monday.dev | built-in   | N/A                                                                |
| YouTrack   | built-in   | N/A                                                                |

*Note:* You can also install multiple trackers at once, for example:
```bash
pip install "gibr[github,jira]"
```
or if you use `uv`
```
uv tool install --with github --with jira gibr
```

### Initial setup
Run `gibr init` to set up your configuration interactively. This will create a [`.gibrconfig`](#branch-naming-convention) file in your project root with the correct format for your chosen issue tracker.
#### .gibrconfig defaults
Your `.gibrconfig` will be generated with defaults for `branch_name_format` and `push`.  You can set `push = False` if you do not want to push your branch to origin by default.  You can modify the branch name format as well, see [Branch naming convention](#branch-naming-convention).

Defaults:
```ini
[DEFAULT]
branch_name_format = {issue}-{title}
push = True
```
### Setup git aliases commands (optional)
Run `gibr alias` to set up git alias commands for your conveinence. This essentially allows you to extend the `git` CLI with `gibr` commands. See [alias command](#alias) for more details

### Commands
- [init](#init)
- [alias](#alias)
- [issues](#issues)
- [create](#create)

#### init
`gibr` includes an `init` command to help you create your `.gibrconfig` file. See the following usage example:
```
$ gibr init
Welcome to gibr setup! Let’s get you started 🚀

Which issue tracker do you use?
1. AzureDevOps
2. GitHub
3. GitLab
4. Jira
5. Linear
6. Monday.dev
7. YouTrack
8. Forgejo (coming soon)

Select a number (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) [1]: 2

GitHub selected.

GitHub repository (e.g. user/repo): ytreister/gibr
Environment variable for your GitHub token [GITHUB_TOKEN]:
🎉  Found GitHub token in environment (GITHUB_TOKEN)
.gibrconfig already exists. Overwrite? [y/N]: y
✅  Created .gibrconfig with GitHub settings
You're all set! Try: `gibr issues`

ℹ️  Customize your `.gibrconfig`:
  - Customize branch name format: set `branch_name_format` (default: "{issue}-{title}")
  - Disable automatic push: set `push = False` to prevent pushing
```
💡Note: `.gibrconfig` will expand envionmental variables, and you can define your variables in a `.env`.

#### alias
`gibr` includes a built-in helper that writes git aliases into your global
`~/.gitconfig` for you. Run:

```bash
gibr alias
```

This adds aliases such as `git create` so that instead of using the gibr CLI directly, you can use an extended version of git:

```bash
git create 123
```

The above command is equivalent to using the CLI as follows: `gibr 123` or
`gibr create 123`.

##### Global flag order
When using the alias version of the commands, the global flags (`--verbose`) must appear after the command.  This is a limitation of the `git` aliases.

```bash
# ✅ gibr CLI (flags before)
gibr --verbose create 123

# ✅ git alias (flags after)
git create 123 --verbose

# ❌ wrong: flags after gibr CLI
gibr create 123 --verbose

# ❌ wrong: flags before the alias
git --verbose create 123
```

#### issues
Run `gibr issues` (or `git issues`) to view open issues in the issue tracker you have configured
##### JSON format
You can pass in a flag to change output format to JSON:
```
$gibr issues --json
[
    {
        "id": "FOO-314",
        "title": "establish a large-limit API key",
        "assignee": "ngoldman",
        "type": "issue"
    },
    ...
]
```
#### create
Run `gibr 123` (or `gibr create 123` or `git create 123`) to create a branch for the cooresponding issue number.
##### Branch naming convention
`gibr` uses the `branch_name_format` from your `.gibrconfig` to determine the format for the branch.
You can use the following placeholders:
- `{issuetype}`
- `{issue}`
- `{title}`
- `{assignee}` (Note: If issue does not have an assignee and your branch name format contains assignee, you will not be able to create the branch)
### Special cases: Jira, Linear and YouTrack
For Jira, you can specify a `project_key` in your configuration:
```ini
[jira]
project_key=FOO
```
For YouTrack, you can specify a `project` in your configuration:
```ini
[youtrack]
project=FOO
```
and for linear you can specify a `team`:
```ini
[linear]
team=FOO
```
If you do this, you can choose to either specify the entire issue id or just the numerical portion (i.e. `FOO-123` or `123`
```bash
# List issues
$ gibr issues
| Issue   | Type    | Title       | Assignee   |
|---------|---------|-------------|------------|
| FOO-3   | Subtask | Subtask 2.1 | ytreister  |
| FOO-2   | Story   | Task 2      |            |
# Create branch for FOO-3
$ gibr 3
Generating branch name for issue FOO-3: Subtask 2.1
Branch name: FOO-3-subtask-2-1
✅  Created branch 'FOO-3-subtask-2-1' from main.
✅  Checked out branch: FOO-3-subtask-2-1
✅  Pushed branch 'FOO-3-subtask-2-1' to origin.
```
### Special case: Azure
Azure DevOps allows teams to customize their work item states based on their workflow. By default, this integration assumes the following states represent closed/completed work items:
  - Done
  - Removed
  - Closed
If your Azure DevOps project uses different state names or a custom workflow, you can configure the closed_states parameter to match your setup.
```ini
[azure]
closed_states=['Done', 'Removed', 'Closed']
```
Work items matching any of the configured `closed_states` will be excluded from the list of active issues.

### Optional flags
- `--verbose` — enable debug-level logging for a command
