Please add a CLI option to auto-detect GITLAB (for -g argument) and project ID from the current git repo the gitlab command is run from. I implemented a shell wrapper around gitlab that basically would do the following:

  • git remote get-url $(git remote)
  • match the host of the above URL with entries in ~/.python-gitlab.cfg to get the GITLAB name
  • Use the last part of the remote URL as project ID

There might be a case of multiple remotes on the git repo., I would suggest adding --git-remote REMOTE argument for such case

Hey @aelmahmoudy, thanks for the request. I'm not sure about this as we're more of an API client and CLI, rather than a git workflow tool, and this would require reading git config.

I wouldn't prioritize this, but if you provide a PR that doesn't add any dependencies (especially as this would require calling git) I'm open to reviewing it!
