Git-issue is a minimalist decentralized issue management system based on Git,
offering (optional) biderectional integration with GitHub and GitLab issue management.
It has the following advantages over other systems.


❮ul❯
❮li❯❮strong❯No backend, no dependencies:❮/strong❯
You can install and use ❮em❯git issue❮/em❯ with a single shell script.
There's no need for a server or a database back-end, and the corresponding
problems and requirements for their administration.❮/li❯
❮li❯❮strong❯Decentralized asynchronous management:❮/strong❯
Anyone can add, comment, and edit issues without requiring online access
to a centralized server.
There's no need for online connectivity; you can pull and push issues
when you're online.❮/li❯
❮li❯❮strong❯Transparent text file format:❮/strong❯
Issues are stored as simple text files, which you can view, edit, share, and
backup with any tool you like.
There's no risk of losing access to your issues because a server has
failed.❮/li❯
❮li❯❮strong❯Git-based:❮/strong❯
Issues are changed and shared through Git.
This provides ❮em❯git issue❮/em❯ with a robust, efficient, portable,
and widely available infrastructure.
It allows you to reuse your Git credentials and infrastructure, allows
the efficient merging of work, and also provides a solid audit trail
regarding any changes.
You can even use Git and command-line tools directly to make sophisticated
changes to your issue database.❮/li❯
