re
is a code review tool. It lets you do Github code reviews from
the terminal using your favorite $EDITOR
.
Install re:
go install github.com/jordanlewis/re
Add your GitHub API token to ~/.github-issue-token
.
Use the -p
option to specify which GitHub project to search for PRs in. If
you don't specify one, re
will attempt to infer a GitHub project by looking
at the origin
remote in the repo that it's invoked from.
To see all of the PRs you are working on, run:
$ re -p cockroachdb/docs
