Variables in config file

[rtalexk]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm using different configs per repository. I want to add them to my dotfiles without leaking org or repo names.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be cool if I could do something like this

prSections:
  - title: Open
    filters: repo:{{org}}/{{repo}} is:open

  - title: Requested
    filters: repo:{{org}}/{{repo}} is:open user-review-requested:@me

  - title: Reviewing
    filters: repo:{{org}}/{{repo}} is:open commenter:@me

It would check if the cwd is a git repo, if so replace {{...}} by the actual vlaue.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not sure if there's a workaround for this, but I've thought about having a config like the one above and create a script so that on-the-fly I replace all {{these}} and write the result to a temp file, then use this temp file as the config for GH Dash.

May work, but seems too much.

alternatively, it would be nice to have access to shell environment variables
