hub is a command-line tool that wraps git to add GitHub-specific features like cloning, creating repositories, forking, and submitting pull requests from the terminal. It can be safely aliased as git and used in shell scripts to interact with the GitHub API.
Use cases
- clone github repos from the terminal
- create a github repository from the command line
- open a pull request from the terminal
- fork a repo and contribute to open source
- list github issues without leaving the shell
- script github api interactions in bash
- sync local branches with remote
When to choose
- you live in the terminal and want git extended with GitHub workflows
- you want a scriptable GitHub API client for shell scripts
- you want to alias git with GitHub superpowers
When to avoid
- you want the actively developed official tool - prefer GitHub CLI (gh)
- you need a GUI for GitHub workflows
- you don't use GitHub as your git host
