GitHub CLI - Get current version

I'm trying to find a command that will show me the current running version of GH CLI.

Right now yes, there is only 1 version (1.0) but in the future, we are going to need to know what version is being run for debug purposes (I'm currently writing internal doc, so I would like to future proof it.)

Usually, command line elements have a -v element like yarn -vso you can know what is the current running version. But that doesn't seem to work with GH CLI.

So is there a way to get the current running GH CLI version?

Solution

  • Oddly, this doesn't seem to be documented, but it's just gh version

    You can see the commands at https://github.com/cli/cli/tree/trunk/pkg/cmd
