✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

glab milestone create [flags]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

Okay so here’s the tea: the --title flag is required. If you want, you can also provide a description, due date, and start date.

By default, the milestone is created in the current project. Want a different project? Use --project to target it. Want a group-level milestone? Use --group. And no cap: --project and --group are mutually exclusive, so pick one — they cannot both show up to the party. 💅

• --start-date="" — start date for the milestone. Expected in ISO 8601 format (2025-04-15T08:00:00Z).
