Like
hut git update <repo> -d <desc>
glab repo update my-project --description "This project is cool."
I use many remotes for all my public work, and I'd like to keep them in sync and publicly available.
Thanks!

I think the best way to implement this would be a command corresponding to the PATCH /repos/{owner}/{repo} endpoint. The problem here is that this allows us to edit a grand total of
34 different properties for a repository. In similar commands, we have a flag for each property,
though I'm not sure if that wouldn't be a little much here. Should I go for that, or do we have a
better idea here?

I think many of the parameters to PATCH /repos/{owner}/{repo} can be in other commands, i.e. all the parameters enabling the units could be in a fj repo units command, and putting basic things like description, private & name in fj repo edit.
Alternatively, it could mimic git config, with fj repo config name <NAME> or fj repo config units.wiki.external_url <URL>

These are the flags available in glab repo update
FLAGS
--archive Whether the project should be archived.
--defaultBranch New default branch for the project.
-d --description New description for the project.
I think the rest are available via glab api.
Alternatively, it could be an interactive tui (choose field, input, confirm loop).
Just my thoughts.
