gh-gist-list - Man Page

List your gists

Synopsis

gh gist list [flags]

Description

List gists from your user account.

You can use a regular expression to filter the description, file names, or even the content of files in the gist using --filter.

For supported regular expression syntax, see  ⟨https://pkg.go.dev/regexp/syntax⟩.

Use --include-content to include content of files, noting that this will be slower and increase the rate limit used. Instead of printing a table, code will be printed with highlights similar to gh search code:

{{gist ID}} {{file name}}
    {{description}}
        {{matching lines from content}}

No highlights or other color is printed when output is redirected.

Options

--filter <expression>

Maximum number of gists to fetch

--public
