This application requires the use of a GitHub Personal Access Token to Authorize.
If you do not have a Personal Access Token, create one at https://github.com/settings/tokens
To login, run the command
gitissues login -t <token>
If the repository is not specified as a command option where required,
looks for a GITHUB_PROJECT environment variable that should contain the repository
name in the format username/repo
If the GITHUB_PROJECT variable name does not exist and if the current working directory is a github repository, the command takes this as the repository to work on.

In the current state of Github REST API, it is not possible to delete an issue.
-
GitHub's REST API v3 considers every pull request an issue, but not every issue is a pull request. For this reason, "Issues" endpoints may return both issues and pull requests in the response. Pull requests can be identified by the pull_request key in response. Hence, right now, the number of issues returned varies as the pull requests are removed from the response till a workaround is found.
