Options
id - Provide the ID of the issue; Must be a number with not more than 16 characters in length. For example, if the ID is 10, then the issue reference will be refs/heads/issues/10. If an issue exists with the matching ID, a comment will be added to the existing issue. 
-t, --title - The title of the issue. Required only when creating a new issue. If unset, a prompt will be started to ask for it.
-b, --body - The body of the issue or comment. If unset, a prompt will be started to ask for it.
-l, --labels - Add up to 10 labels to the issue. 
-a, --assignees - Add up to 10 assignees to the issue.
-e, --reactions - Provide up to 10 reactions to a comment. Supports Unicode v13.0 emoji list. Note: emoji short names with spaces must replace them with underscore (_) character. For example, upside-down face becomes upside-down_face. 
-r, --reply - Specify the hash of a comment in an existing issue you wish to respond to. If provided, reactions will be addressed to the target comment.
-c, --close - Close an issue. The user must have  update  rights to successfully push a closed issue reference.
-o, --reopen - Reopen a closed issue. The user must have  update  rights to successfully push the reopened issue reference.
--editor - Specify an editor program to use to write the body instead of a prompt or  -b flag.
-u, --use-editor - Similar to --editor but uses default git editor set in core.editor.
--new - While checked into an issue branch, force the command to create a new issue instead of adding a comment to the checked-out issue.  Note: If the checked out branch is dirty, it will fail without using --force to ignore unsaved changes. 
--no-body - Prevent the command from starting a prompt to ask for the body. 
--force - Ignore unsaved changes to the currently checked out branch. Unsaved updates will be lost.
