Works great for me, it really speeds up bringing across issues from my tutor's repo to my own. Some of the students are not able to see/copy labels across, and I can't see an option to help them. Hopefully John Murphy will be able to help solve the mystery?

Good extension.

A useful tool for copying the title, labels, and original message to a new repo. I would make two recommendations: 1. There should be an option to copy over an issue's comments too. 90% of our info is in the comments, and it makes it impossible to "continue" a dialog if you always have to link back to the original ticket to see context. Comments could either get added as actual comments, or (if that's not possible) using some syntax in the main message. eg: delineated by a markdown HR, commenter's username, and datetime commented: ``` ---- @[commenter's name] – 2018-01-01 12:00:00 ``` 2. The only other option would be @mention each user (original and from comments) so they are added to the participants list and get updates on the new ticket. A great tool, and if the above two features were added this would be pretty much perfect! Thank you John!
