Creating a label

In repositories where you have write access, you can create labels to organize issues and pull requests.

All GitHub docs are open source. See something that's wrong or unclear? Submit a pull request.

Tip: You can also create a label in the Labels drop-down menu within an issue or pull request.

On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.
Under your repository name, click Issues or Pull requests.
Above the list of issues or pull requests, click Labels.
To the right of the search field, click New label.
Under "Label name", type a name for your label.
Under "Description", type a description to help others understand and use your label.
Optionally, to customize the color of your label, edit the hexadecimal number, or click the refresh button for another random selection.
To save the new label, click Create label.
