NAME

       gh-repo-set-default - Configure default repository for this directory

       gh repo set-default [<repository>] [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       This  command  sets  the default remote repository to use when querying the GitHub API for
       the locally cloned repository.

       gh uses the default repository for things like:

              • viewing and creating pull requests

              • viewing and creating issues

              • viewing and creating releases

              • working with Actions

              • adding repository and environment secrets

       -u, --unset
              unset the current default repository

       -v, --view
              view the current default repository

EXAMPLE

              Interactively select a default repository:
              $ gh repo set-default

              Set a repository explicitly:
              $ gh repo set-default owner/repo

              View the current default repository:
              $ gh repo set-default --view

              Show more repository options in the interactive picker:
