How do I add a line break while editing a field via CLI?
im editissue --field=comment="first line\nsecond line" ISSUE_NUMBER
just saves the whole string in one line with a "\n"
The comment field is a multiline field and it is possible to insert a line break in GUI.
OS is Windows 7, integrity version is 10.6
I think it has more to do with the shell rather than the im
utility itself. ANSI-C Quoting appears to work on Git Bash/Windows:
im editissue --field=FieldName=$'test\ntest' 123456
The $
causes the \n
character in ''
-delimited text to be interpolated - see this question for more details.
