Check out https://github.com/cli/cli/blob/trunk/docs/gh-vs-hub.md

FWIW gh is built by some of the same people that built & maintain hub.

Thanks. I think this info should become part of the blog post IMHO

Hey, thanks for sharing. I was wondering about hub vs GH.

I use `hub sync` multiple times per day. Essential tool.

It's the only way to stay sane in a repo with multiple other developers merging PRs. Updates all of your branches in the background to the current remote version.

Damn, I should RTFM, 'cause that sounds super useful!

For the time being, hub still mostly helps with git operations, in fact it can be used as a git wrapper/replacement since it supports all of git’s commands.

gh on the other hand seems to very specifically work on GitHub’s non-git features, like Issues, PRs, repositories.

IME for non-git features hub is very slow iirc it's written in Ruby

hub has been pure Go for a long time now.
