1. The Setup
Testing the automation of closing a GitHub Issue via a VSCode Commit Message shown in youtube tutorial: How to Use GitHub for Automated Kanban Project Management
High level steps:
- Create Issue
- Attach associated Repo
- Attach associated Project
- Attach any relevant Tags
- Do required changes to your repo files
- Commit with “
resolve #
” associated to Issue
[Important]: to include “resolve #58” in Commit Message in order to tell Github to automatically resolve it.
2. Issue is Open
3. Issue is Closed successfully
Actions: Commmited
, Staged
and Pushed
.
[SUCCESS]: Issue #58 has indeed been automatically closed without a manual intervention on the kanban board!
4. A Tick ☑️ as a little reward for work done
5. Resolve Multiple Issues at once!
I attempted to close two issues at once with a single commmit message.
Commit message: “test resolve #59 #60” - Does not work
Commit message: “test double resolve #60 resolve #61” - Did work
There’s probably a better way but this will do.
