Writing a github extension in go

I hadn’t put any thought into using the github or gitlab CLI for a long time, but both are pretty useful. We are using standard github for projects and also a self installed gitlab. Both CLIs are golang programs.

First we need to authenticate.

⋊> ◦ gh auth login                                                         

? What account do you want to log into? GitHub.com
? You're already logged into github.com. Do you want to re-authenticate? Yes
? What is your preferred protocol for Git operations? SSH
? Upload your SSH public key to your GitHub account? /Users/niko/.ssh/id_rsa_m1.pub
? Title for your SSH key: GitHub CLI
? How would you like to authenticate GitHub CLI? Login with a web browser

! First copy your one-time code: 4024-84CC
Press Enter to open github.com in your browser... 
✓ Authentication complete.
- gh config set -h github.com git_protocol ssh
✓ Configured git protocol

✓ Uploaded the SSH key to your GitHub account: 
✓ Logged in as hellonico

gh extension install redraw/gh-install
