Repository navigation
Issue searches with label are case-sensitive #1819
Description
Describe the bug
When running something like gh issue list --label foo, issues with label Foo are not returned despite labels being case-insensitive on the GitHub web site both in terms of searching and creating, i.e. you can't create a label that differs only by case.
Assignee, author, and milestone queries are case-insensitive, however. I can pass "HEATHS" and get the same results as "heaths".
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- cd to your repo and type
gh issue list --label <some-label>where<some-label>exists but diffs by case
Expected vs actual behavior
Issues with a label that differs by case are not returned.
Logs
Nothing very interesting it seems, but just in case it helps (against https://github.com/Azure/azure-sdk-for-net):
gh issue list --author HEATHS --milestone "[2020] october" --label Search[git remote -v]

This appears to actually be a GraphQL / backend issue, as the following query yields the same empty results (sans milestone, which wasn't yielding results and I suspect requires some sort of escaping that wasn't among the obvious patterns I tried):
{ organization(login: "Azure") { repository(name: "azure-sdk-for-net") { issues(first: 10, filterBy: {assignee: "HEATHS", labels: "search", states: OPEN}) { nodes { assignees(first: 1) { nodes { login } } author { login } title } } } } }heaths commentedon Sep 18, 2020
If changing the service is not under consideration, perhaps an edge query on a case-insensitive label search?
{ organization(login: "Azure") { repository(name: "azure-sdk-for-net") { labels(query: "search", first: 10) { edges { node { issues(filterBy: {assignee: "HEATHS", states: OPEN}, first: 10) { nodes { number assignees(first: 2) { nodes { login } } title labels(first: 3) { nodes { name } } milestone { title } } } } } } } } }Do case-insensitive lookup of labels for issues
