This is great. Milestones and assignees are the only things I've found myself missing in Issues besides file attachments.

Now I just wish there were a way to mass edit issues without checking each one individually. It's going to be a pain to migrate every issue in our 1.0 tag to Milestone 1.0.

I also was looking for a way to select all.

The fastest way I can find to do it is through the keyboard shortcuts.

  - Move down with "j" 
  - Select issue with "x"
  - Move down with "j"
  ....

pentadactyl

http://dactyl.sourceforge.net/pentadactyl/index

I run pentadactyl, and vimperator before pentadactyl was around.

What does that have to do with the keyboard shortcuts on github's home page?

I don't run pentadactyl but it looks like it supports vim-style macros. I assume it would be something like qAjx to create the macro and 25@A to use it if j and x pass through to the page properly.

I had been using an @name label for assignment, it's nice to see this supported. But filw attachmentes are still missing right? This is a really important feature that makes issues much less useful than it could be :(

Same situation here. I’d love to push our company to Git+GitHub and the new issue tracker is another small advantage in comparison to our current setup, but it’s a no-go until we can attach screenshots and logs to the issues. Let’s hope that file attachments simply did not make it into 2.0 and are scheduled for one of the first point releases.

you should be able to hold shift to select multiple as well

Thanks for the tip! I hadn't thought of trying that. This will save some time. It looks like I'll have to resort to using the mouse.
