A simple go script to convert a markdown file into a hierarchical set of jira tickets

You're right; my apologies for that oversight. Let me fix that for you:

To build the project, make sure you have Go installed on your system. Then, navigate to the project directory and run:

go build

This will generate an executable file named md2jira in the current directory.

To run unit tests, use the following command:

go test

This will execute all test cases defined in the project.

Jira CLI Tool requires Jira credentials to authenticate with your Jira instance. You can provide these credentials through a configuration file or command-line options.

By default, Jira CLI Tool looks for a configuration file named config.yml in the ~/.jira.d/ directory. You can specify the Jira endpoint URL, email, and API token in this file using the following format:

endpoint: <Jira-URL>
user: <Jira-Email>
token: <API-Token>

Replace <Jira-URL>, <Jira-Email>, and <API-Token> with your Jira instance URL, email, and API token respectively.

Alternatively, you can override the configuration file values by passing command-line options. Use the following format:

./md2jira --url=<Jira-URL> --user=<Jira-Email> --token=<API-Token>

Replace <Jira-URL>, <Jira-Email>, and <API-Token> with your Jira instance URL, email, and API token respectively.

You can also provide additional field settings for Jira issues through command-line options. Use the following format:

./md2jira --field="field_name=value"

Replace field_name with the name of the Jira field you want to set and value with the desired value.

After building the project and configuring your Jira credentials, you can use the CLI tool to create Jira issues from markdown files. Here's a basic usage example:

./md2jira path/to/markdown-file.md

Replace path/to/markdown-file.md with the path to your markdown file.

For more information on how to format your markdown file for Jira issue creation, please refer to the documentation.

Thank you for bringing that to my attention. Let me know if you need further adjustments!
