I use this to note potential issues in my copy of the Git project. For outright bugs though I report them to the project.

awesome to see a user in the wild! if you weren't aware, you can publish your git-bug issues to the project's issue tracker, assuming that it's on one of the supported bridges today (github, gitlab, jira).

the bridges exist within git-bug to support adoption of the tool and interop with existing platforms.

`git bug bridge pull` and `git bug bridge push` use the bridge's API, and don't attempt to pull from or push to the git remote.

Thanks. I can’t push it to the issue tracker since they don’t have one. Bug reports go to the mailing list.

hrm... what's your current workflow like? if there's anything you think git-bug could be doing to make that workflow easier, would you mind hopping in our matrix channel [1], or opening an issue [2]?

I create issues for myself. I sometimes create branches with informal issue keys like `<three letters>-<incrementing number>`. I use `git bug webui` to type edit issues. That’s it.

All I would like as a nice-to-have is support for making those issue keys that I use automatic. For me it’s all local to me so it doesn’t need to be globally unique. But those N-letter prefix does make collision less likely on a single project. I’ve mentioned it here: https://github.com/git-bug/git-bug/issues/75#issuecomment-19...
