CodeWhen
0The selected issue or PR is adopted, or the selected issues are labeled successfully.
1Validation, lookup, PR eligibility, backing issue creation, or label mutation fails.
  • —all and an explicit issue or pull request argument are mutually exclusive
  • An issue or pull request argument is required unless —all is used
  • --all remains issue-only; there is no bulk PR adoption mode.
  • Adoptable PRs must be open, non-draft, and use a same-repository branch.
  • A PR with one open same-repository closing reference uses that issue as its work item; a PR with none creates a tracking issue; a PR with multiple is rejected as ambiguous.
  • A PR whose backing issue already has a shipper:* label is rejected as already tracked.
