NAME
glab-work-items-update - Update work items in a project or group. (EXPERIMENTAL)
SYNOPSIS
glab work-items update [flags]
DESCRIPTION
The command uses your repository context to detect scope automatically.
Use --group to target a group or subgroup. --group and --repo are mutually exclusive.
--attach uploads a file and references it at the end of the description. Repeat the flag for more than one file, or pass - to read the file from standard input. Without --description the references are added to the description the work item already has, instead of replacing it. Uploads are project-scoped, so --attach cannot be combined with --group.
This feature is an experiment and is not ready for production use. It might be unstable or removed at any time. For more information, see https://docs.gitlab.com/policy/development_stages_support/.
