The command github-label-sync ${repository_name} is a command-line instruction used to synchronize labels between a local computer system and a GitHub repository. Here's how it works:

  1. github-label-sync: This is the name of the command, which is executed in the terminal or command prompt. It invokes the functionality of the github-label-sync tool.

  2. ${repository_name}: This is a placeholder representing the name of the GitHub repository you want to sync the labels with. You need to replace ${repository_name} with the actual name of the repository you want to work with.

When you execute this command, the github-label-sync tool will perform the following actions:

  1. Connect to the GitHub repository specified by ${repository_name}.

  2. Fetch the existing labels from the GitHub repository.

  3. Compare the fetched labels with the locally stored labels (if any).

  4. Synchronize the labels, making sure the labels on the GitHub repository match the labels on the local system. This means creating new labels, updating existing labels, or deleting outdated labels as needed.

The specific behavior of the github-label-sync tool may vary based on the configuration provided or any additional options passed with the command.
