[..] Well, the wiping of text directly below an issue's level 2 heading is a data-loss bug, so I would suggest that you certainly don't do that :) Yes. I'll fix it, as soon as I get some time and am able to move stuff to v2. With respect to sub-headings (level 3 or below) that are added by hand to the github.org file, I would suggest that by default you do not sync them with GitHub. Maybe you could have a function called something like org-ghi-make-heading-a-comment that would work in a similar way to org-ghi-make-todo-an-issue. However, it seems that GitHub issue comments only understand markdown syntax, not org syntax, so unless the comment is just simple text it would require an export step (https://github.com/alexhenning/ORGMODE-Markdown might help there). Thanks for the suggestions, will look into them. :) -- Puneeth

[O] [Announce] A GitHub Issues interface for Org-mode
Hello Orgsters, Issue Tracker integration with Org-mode has been something that a lot of people have been looking for. Being the GitHub addict, that I am, I decided to hack up something that integrates GitHub issues with Org-mode. It presently allows - Importing all open issues from a project into an org-file. [Milestone due dates (if any) are added as Deadlines. - Closing Issues, Editing Tags, Changing Issue Name - Convert a TODO item into an Org-mode issue. However, it uses APIv3 of GitHub, which is Beta. So, expect some erratic behaviour. :) I have put up my code here [1]. The code isn't all that clean and robust, but it works. Hope atleast some of you will find it useful. Any suggestions, feedback and code help is more than welcome. Thanks, Puneeth [1] https://github.com/punchagan/org-ghi
