Restructure gh help by splitting core commands and ancillary commands in groups #711

Closed

Description

@mislav

Problem: viewing gh help output alphabetically sorts available commands, which currently displays arguably less interesting commands first and more interesting commands last.

Potential solution: split commands into topic groups, similar to how git help does.

Before:

Available Commands:
  completion  Generate shell completion scripts
  help        Help about any command
  issue       Create and view issues
  pr          Create, view, and checkout pull requests
  repo        Create, clone, fork, and view repositories

After (exact naming to be discussed):

Core Commands:
  issue       Create and view issues
  pr          Create, view, and checkout pull requests
  repo        Create, clone, fork, and view repositories

Ancillary Commands:
  completion  Generate shell completion scripts
  help        Help about any command
