NAME

       gh-alias-import - Import aliases from a YAML file

SYNOPSIS

       gh alias import [<filename> | -] [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Import aliases from the contents of a YAML file.

       Aliases  should  be  defined  as  a  map in YAML, where the keys represent aliases and the
       values represent the corresponding expansions.  An  example  file  should  look  like  the
       following:

       bugs: issue list --label=bug
       igrep: '!gh issue list --label="$1" | grep "$2"'
       features: |-
           issue list
           --label=enhancement

       Use - to read aliases (in YAML format) from standard input.

       The  output from gh alias list can be used to produce a YAML file containing your aliases,
       which you can use to import them from one machine to another. Run gh help  alias  list  to
       learn more.

OPTIONS

       --clobber
              Overwrite existing aliases of the same name

EXAMPLE

       # Import aliases from a file
