gh-velocity flow#

Flow metrics (lead-time, cycle-time, velocity)

Synopsis#

How fast is work flowing through your team?

Flow metrics measure the speed and volume of work:

lead-time Total time from issue creation to closure cycle-time Active work time (start signal to close/merge) throughput Items completed per time window velocity Effort delivered per iteration

Options#

  -h, --help   help for flow

Options inherited from parent commands#

      --config string     Path to config file (default: .gh-velocity.yml)
      --debug             Print diagnostic info to stderr
      --new-post          Force a new post (skip idempotent update; implies --post)
      --no-cache          Disable disk cache (in-memory deduplication still active)
      --post              Post output to GitHub (dry-run by default; set GH_VELOCITY_POST_LIVE=true for live)
  -R, --repo string       Repository in owner/name format
  -r, --results strings   Output format(s): json, pretty, markdown, html (comma-separated) (default [pretty])
      --scope string      Additional GitHub search qualifier(s) ANDed with config scope
      --title string      Override discussion title (with --post)
      --write-to string   Write result files to this directory (silences stdout)
