## Using GitHub CLI
GitHub CLI will have trouble finding the proper git repository path in jj repos
that aren't [co-located](./git-compatibility.md#co-located-jujutsugit-repos)
(see [issue #1008]). You can configure the `$GIT_DIR` environment variable to
point it to the right path:
```shell
$ GIT_DIR=.jj/repo/store/git gh issue list
```
You can make that automatic by installing [direnv](https://direnv.net) and
defining hooks in a .envrc file in the repository root to configure `$GIT_DIR`.
Just add this line into .envrc:
```shell
export GIT_DIR=$PWD/.jj/repo/store/git
```
and run `direnv allow` to approve it for direnv to run. Then GitHub CLI will
work automatically even in repos that aren't co-located so you can execute
commands like `gh issue list` normally.
