GitHub CLI is a free and open-source tool that brings GitHub functionality directly to the command line. It allows developers to manage repositories, pull requests, issues, and releases without leaving the terminal. With simple commands, users can perform common GitHub tasks such as checking out pull requests or creating issues locally. The CLI helps eliminate context switching by enabling a full GitHub workflow from the terminal environment. Developers can also interact with the GitHub API to automate tasks and create custom scripts or command aliases. Additionally, GitHub CLI supports connections to both GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Server for enterprise-ready workflows.
