gh-ruleset-check - View rules that would apply to a given branch
Contents
Description
View information about GitHub rules that apply to a given branch.
The provided branch name does not need to exist; rules will be displayed that would apply to a branch
with that name. All rules are returned regardless of where they are configured.
If no branch name is provided, then the current branch will be used.
The --default flag can be used to view rules that apply to the default branch of the repository.
Example
# View all rules that apply to the current branch
$ gh ruleset check
# View all rules that apply to a branch named "my-branch" in a different repository
$ gh ruleset check my-branch --repo owner/repo
# View all rules that apply to the default branch in a different repository
$ gh ruleset check --default --repo owner/repo
# View a ruleset configured in a different repository or any of its parents
$ gh ruleset view 23 --repo owner/repo
# View an organization-level ruleset
