Update github markdown Tasklists ( GFM ) via commi

Question

As you know you can create a tasklist in GFM (github flavoured markdown) by using the tags

- [ ] for unchecked task
- [x] for a checked task

I was wondering if it is somehow possible to check a task in a given issue's tasklist by commeinting it in a commit.

Answer 1

Well the simple answer is NO, you cannot tick task list by adding comments to a commit message.

But what you can actually do, along with a commit you can update the .markdown that contains this list.
