gh-issue: Display a specific issue.
$ gh issue view ${issue_number}
try on your machine

The command "gh issue view ${issue_number}" is typically used in the command line interface (CLI) tool called "gh" (GitHub CLI) to view the details of a specific issue on GitHub.

Here's an explanation of the different parts of the command:

  • "gh": It refers to the GitHub CLI command.
  • "issue": It signifies that we want to perform an action related to an issue.
  • "view": This subcommand is used to view the details of an issue.
  • "${issue_number}": It is a placeholder that represents the specific issue number you want to view. You need to replace "${issue_number}" with the actual number of the issue you want to see.

For example, if you want to view issue number 42, you would run the command as follows:

gh issue view 42

Executing this command will display the details of the issue with the specified number, including the issue title, description, state, assignees, labels, comments, and other relevant information.
