+ [2020-07-10T15:07:13Z] jfoster I found one, called gitpigeon. It doesn
+ [2020-07-10T14:33:04Z] jfoster What I'm looking for is something that has a visual indicator of, perhaps, the number of current events currently in progress, maybe a decorator of green or red based on outcome.
+ [2020-07-10T14:32:19Z] jfoster Hello, is anyone aware of a native mac app that shows status of Github Actions in your tray?
+ [2020-03-20T22:19:32Z] jfoster I guess you could write to a comment on the issue, some machine-readable marker and then throw the data in there. It would just be kind of ugly in the UI and could be edited or removed by someone.
+ [2020-03-20T22:18:13Z] jfoster For example, if you wanted to attach structured data to an issue, like json.
+ [2020-03-20T22:17:35Z] jfoster Apart from labels, milestones and other items available from the UI?
+ [2020-03-20T22:16:59Z] jfoster Are there any ways to add meta data to an issue?
+ [2020-03-17T20:58:35Z] jfoster In this example, the repos get issues for fixes or enhancements related specifically to their function, but need to be brought forth as a single release at the same time.
+ [2020-03-17T20:57:44Z] jfoster An example is an enterprise SaaS that has a custom environment for onsite install and devops tooling for that, a web application, and a largely static public website.
+ [2020-03-17T20:56:42Z] jfoster Soliton Sometimes products have multiple pieces that all need to be part of a release, and either for historical or scope reasons they need to live in multiple repos.
+ [2020-03-17T20:41:51Z] jfoster Anyhow, if anyone sees this later and thinks they would like to try it out or offer feedback, please pm me.

+ [2020-03-17T20:40:44Z] jfoster Code tree does it and seems to rule the roost rn.
+ [2020-03-17T20:40:40Z] jfoster ah hm. ya that is not the speed of release cycle i'm hoping for. looking for >1 month regular point small releases
+ [2020-03-17T20:38:13Z] jfoster So I wrote this script that does a bunch of the milestone and label syncing among other small tasks. But i have more to add. I'm thinking about generalizing this into a product. Something like Codetree but with a better permissions model. Curious if anyone's in this situation on github that might try something if i build it.
+ [2020-03-17T20:36:52Z] jfoster Thanks, i'll fend for myself.
+ [2020-03-17T20:36:36Z] jfoster You're a sharp one, R2robot .
+ [2020-03-17T20:35:43Z] jfoster I both code for and PM a small team, and using the UI is cumbersome and people make mistakes as issues need to hop to the next release
+ [2020-03-17T20:35:10Z] jfoster Thanks nedbat . R2robot The problem I have had is a 3 week release cycle with a project using multiple repos. Having a single milestone "Version 1.1.8" and label across each "1.1.8."
