Life hack for github-cli gh repo clone $(printf 'squidowl/halloy%.0s ' {1..2}), i.e. clone into owner/repo directory, not just repo. #github

EDIT:

I wrote a small #bash (obviously works also for #zsh) function to make cloning easier in my environment:

gh-repo-work() {
  local url=$1
  # Strip path from URL:
  local url_path=${url#*\.*/}
  # Clone to the Github tree:
  gh repo clone $url_path "$HOME/work/github/$url_path"
}

“Demo”:

~ main*
❯ gh-repo-work m4b/goblin
