GitHub
Open issues assigned to you, from every repository where the Diarized app is installed. Labels carry the rest.
What Diarized reads
- How long it takes
- A label such as 45m, 1hr or 2hr, the same set Todoist users know. 1h and 2h work too. With no such label, the issue books 30 minutes.
- How urgent it is
- A label such as p0 to p4, high, or priority: high. Diarized reads it and never changes it.
- When it is due
- The due date of the issue's milestone, if it has one. Most issues have none, and Diarized includes them anyway.
- How to mark it done
- Close the issue in GitHub, or delete its calendar block and Diarized closes it as completed.
What gets scheduled
Open issues assigned to you. Pull requests are left out: a review is not a block of work you plan. Issues on a repository where the app is not installed are invisible to Diarized, so install it on each account or organisation whose issues you want.
Worth doing
- Add the duration labels once per repository you work in. Labels are per repository on GitHub, so Diarized does not create them for you.
The one thing to know
GitHub has no estimate, no priority and almost no due dates. Without labels every issue is 30 minutes at equal weight, which works, but the schedule is only as good as the labels.
