No standard Linux command named gh-formatting exists in the official GitHub CLI (gh) or common distributions. It may refer to a custom alias, extension, script, or hypothetical tool for formatting GitHub-related outputs like Markdown, issues, or PRs. GitHub CLI (gh) provides formatting via flags in commands like gh pr view --json or gh issue list --template, but no dedicated gh-formatting subcommand is documented. Check gh help or GitHub CLI repo for extensions. If it's a third-party tool, consult its specific documentation.

Command not found in GitHub CLI (v2.x) or standard Linux man pages. Likely non-existent, custom, or misspelled. Verify with gh --help or package managers like apt/yum.
May confuse with fmt(1) (text formatter) or gofmt(1) (Go formatter).

Use gh pr view --template '{{.title}}' for custom formatting.
jq for JSON: gh api ... | jq.

Ensure GitHub CLI: gh version. Extensions via gh extension install.

No official history; GitHub CLI (gh) developed by GitHub Inc. since 2020, replacing hub. No formatting subcommand added in releases up to 2.49.0 (2024).
