GT-MILESTONE-CREATE(1)         gitea-cli Manual         GT-MILESTONE-CREATE(1)



NAME
       gt-milestone-create - Create a milestone



SYNOPSIS
       gt milestone create [<title>] [flags]



DESCRIPTION
       Create a milestone. Without flags on a terminal, a form asks for the
       title, description and due date. A milestone with the same title,
       ignoring case, is refused unless --force updates it, since titles
       address milestones.
