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



NAME
       gt-time-create - Log time spent on an issue



SYNOPSIS
       gt time create {<number> | <url>} <duration> [flags]



DESCRIPTION
       Log time spent on an issue or pull request. The duration uses h, m and
       s units, such as 1h25m or "1h 25m".


   ARGUMENTS
       An issue can be supplied as argument in any of the following formats:
       - by number, e.g. "123" or "#123"
       - by URL, e.g. "https://gitea.com/OWNER/REPO/issues/123"
       - by repository and number, e.g. "OWNER/REPO#123"

       Several issues must be in one repository. Next to "OWNER/REPO#123" or a URL, "124" means
       OWNER/REPO#124, unless gt targets another repository otherwise, such as the clone's, --repo
       or GITEA_CLI_REPO: then the command fails, and the number must be qualified.
