The Checklist

The checklist sits in the issue's Simple Checklist panel and in its Activity section. The bar at the top shows how many items are done, and a red note counts required items still open.

Adding items

• Type in Add an item and press Enter.
• Start with # to add a section heading. Each section shows its own done/total.
• Paste several lines to add one item per line. - [x] comes in as done, - [ ] and plain lines as open, and a line ending in ! as Required.
