A new issue. With the tag `#bug` and an estimated complexity of `~1`.\n\nOne line descriptions aren't enough? Run `workitem new` for the editor:\n\nTo get started, run `npm i -g workitem`, then in your git repo run `workitem init`\n\n## Getting Started\n\n#### To **add** an item do:\n\n_Example:_\n\n`wi add \"fix terrible bug\"`\n\nYou can optionally include as many `#tags` as you wish and specify a `~complexity` in whatever estimation language you prefer e.g. story points `~10` or t-shirt sizes `~medium` or weight in carrots `~20kg`. workitem is unit of effort agnostic in the same way that your project manager is supposed to be.\n\nIf your work item is dependent on another item, you can specify that dependency with the `\u003c` and `\u003e` characters.\n\n`\u003c` for example marks a work item as a child of, or smaller than, another. Adding a child item as follows, `wi add \"a task that can't be completed yet\" \u003c ` _`f00b005`_, would prevent task `f00b005` being moved beyond the active stage of your newly created task in the work flow.\n\n`\u003e` makes the item a parent of another and thus means the new item cannot be moved beyond the child work item it references. The parent-child relationships between items are many-to-many in most cases but they can be configured otherwise (see [config](#config) to learn about good parenting)\n\n#### To move an item with an _`id-or-index`_ do:\n\n_Example:_\n\n`wi move ` _`id-or-index`_ ` [to] doing [-f]`\n\nMoving an item must be forced with `-f` if you are moving from and to workflow stages that are neither specified as transitionable nor permitted by parent-child relationships (see [config](#config) to learn about workflow transitions)\n\n#### To show items do:\n\n_Example:_\n\n`wi`\n\nShows the current work item \"board\" truncated enough that it fits without much scrolling around.\n\n_Outputs:_\n\n![wi](https://github.com/benbenbenbenbenben/workitem/raw/master/docs/wi.PNG)\n\n_Example:_\n\n`wi show more`\n\nShows all the work items that are in your current iteration, and if you don't work in iterations, all those that are not archived.\n\n_Outputs:_\n\n![wi more](https://github.com/benbenbenbenbenben/workitem/raw/master/docs/wimore.PNG)\n\n#### To note something on an item do:\n\n`wi note` _`id-or-index`_ `\"interesting findings Alice!\"`\n\n## Corrupt this Project\n\nIf you like .workitem and you would like the contributors to put your favoured features then you can ","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbenbenbenbenbenben%2Fworkitem","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbenbenbenbenbenben%2Fworkitem","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbenbenbenbenbenben%2Fworkitem/lists"}
