glab-issue: Create a new issue in the default web browser.
$ glab issue create --web
try on your machine

The "glab issue create --web" command is used in the GitLab CLI (Command-Line Interface) tool, which provides a command-line interface for interacting with GitLab.

This specific command is used to create a new issue in a GitLab project through the web interface. By adding the "--web" option, it opens the issue creation form directly in your default web browser, allowing you to fill in the details and submit the new issue without having to do it through the command-line.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "glab" is the executable for the GitLab CLI tool.
  • "issue create" is the specific action being performed, i.e., creating a new issue.
  • "--web" is an option that triggers opening the issue form in the web interface.

In summary, running this command opens a web form for creating a new issue in the specified GitLab project. This can be handy for users who prefer using GUI interfaces or need to provide more detailed information using the web interface.
