usage

🖊️ 1. create an issue

🖊️ 2. create a pull request

First of all, you need to commit your change

And, just select "create a pull request"

• the title of a pull request comes from the latest commit
• the body of a pull request comes from the latest commit either
• If the pull request closed, it would close the issue together

⚠️ Caveat If you want to use "close" keyword to close related issue together, the base(destination) branch should be a default branch

🖊️ 3. Synchronize a fork branch with origin branch

If you need to update your fork branch whenever origin is updated, you can do it without visiting to your fork branch manually

😩 Not this

🖊️ 4. Remove unused issue branches

When you are using gitip, maybe you would face the situation that there are bunch of redundant issue branches like below

2. 😩 fork debris

If you should remove the unused branches, it takes time and effort. So, for you, you can remove them all at once like below

4. 😀 like this

As a result, you meat the erased clean space
