Start a branch from it
Choose Create Branch from This Issue…. GitTree proposes a branch name and creates it from the current commit.
Expected result
You are working on the issue in its own branch, and the issue is linked by its number.
If something goes wrong
“No open issues in …”
The repository has none open, or issues are turned off for it on the provider.

The provider could not be reached. Press Refresh Pull Requests and Issues when you are back online.
Questions
Can I close an issue from GitTree?
Not yet: Open Issue in Browser and close it there, or close it with a keyword such as Fixes #12 in a merged pull request.
