feat: auto suggestion #348

Open jjangga0214 opened 2 years ago

Hi!

I strongly feel that an auto-suggestion of the repository name is needed.

Let's say I have several scaffolding repos like jjanggga0214/foo-bar-scaffolding, jjanggga0214/foo-qux-taz-scaffolding, jjanggga0214/moo-uxx-baq-scaffolding, etc.

And I cannot remember the exact name of them. Because there're many repos, and their names are long.

For example, I have https://github.com/jjangga0214/ts-yarn-lerna-boilerplate. And I cannot be sure if its name is ts-yarn-lerna-boilerplate or yarn-ts-lerna-boilerplate. or even ts-lerna-yarn-boilerplate. So everytime I git clone the repo, I access GitHub and find the repo's name.

Therefore I think interactive auto-suggestion of repo name(e.g. by fuzzy finding) would be very helpful. Like how shell autocompletion works.

Thanks.

Wouldn't it just be easier to make a list of your own repos? Not to rain on your parade, but how would the tool know what repositories you control, to be able to suggest them?
