Hub

Hub is a command‑line extension that augments Git with GitHub‑specific actions, allowing users to perform common GitHub workflows without leaving the terminal. It adds commands for cloning repositories, creating new projects, browsing issue pages, and opening wikis, while also providing shortcuts for synchronizing local branches with remote state.

The tool targets developers who work primarily in a shell environment, including both newcomers and seasoned contributors to open‑source projects. It simplifies for, checking CI status, and submitting pull requests, and can generate Gists from log files, making routine GitHub interactions scriptable and faster.

Hub is open source and distributed under a free‑tier license, with stable releases available through package managers such as Homebrew for macOS and Linux. Its design focuses on reducing friction for terminal‑centric workflows and enabling automation of GitHub tasks directly from Git commands.
