   Looks really nice, I wonder why there hasn't been a project with this exact name and functionality before. When I think about it, "git bug" is quite limiting (the bug vs. feature discussion).

   Naming things is hard, but I can see that it might feel unnatural to use "git bug" to track features. Maybe that's totally okay because it does one thing - tracking bugs - very well, and the whole feature roadmap is living in another system/process anyways?

      I once worked at a company where the chief architect created an actual bug in Jira, the entire text of which was, "X doesn't exist", X being the name of the product which took ~3 years to develop (and yes it was all tracked as dependencies of that one bug).

         It’s a variation on the old Lisp technique of debugging the empty program. You start with () (a.k.a. nil), which doesn’t do what you want, so you debug it.
