# How to use this script:
# 
# 1. gh auth logout
# 2. gh auth login --scopes "project,read:project"
# 3. gh api graphql --cache 5m --jq ".data.user.projectV2.id" -f query='query { user(login: "octocat") { projectV2(number: 42) { id } } }'
#
#    Replace "octocat" with your GitHub username and "42" with the project number, and add the project ID to the script.
# 4. Create a file named "issues.txt" with one issue title per line.
# 5. chmod +x add_issues.sh
# 6. ./add_issues.sh
#
# Perhaps this is not the best way, but it worked for me. Once the issues have been imported, you can select them all
# in the web UI and move them to the "Todo" column.
