> shifting default workflows away from the standard client is one of those changes that doesn't serve users There is no "default workflow" for git - Git can be used in a variety of ways; everyone has their own personal preference, and some of these workflows are shaped by interacting with systems like Github/Gerrit/etc. Every place I've ever worked at has either: - a home-grown wrapper around git to make common operations easy - a recommended set of git aliases around common operations The fact that Github has created their own to interact with their own system is a net win for individuals/organizations who would otherwise need to spend time scripting their own. Of all the capabilities of the Github CLI, `gh pr checkout` is the only one I use, because it makes it easy to fetch a PR locally by ID without configuring a remote per fork. I'm pretty glad I didn't have to write this myself.
