    [ -e severity | --severity=severity ]
    [ -p priority | --priority=priority ]

DESCRIPTION
Queries the GNATS database according to options and displays bugreports on standard output. Using the argument displays the bug report gnats-id. send-pr with no options or arguments yields summary information for every report in the database.

All options are connected with a logical AND. For example,
    query-pr --category=category --responsible=responsible
only prints PRs which have a >Category: field of category and a >Responsible: field of responsible.

OPTIONS

-i, --sql
    Prints data in a format readable by a relational database (see gnats.texi for a full explanation).

-F, --full
    Prints the full Problem Report rather than just a summary.

-d directory, --directory=directory
    Changes the search directory to directory.

-c category, --category=category
    Search only for PRs with a >Category: field of category.

-S submitter, --submitter=submitter
    Search only for PRs with a >Submitter-Id: field of submitter.

-r responsible, --responsible=responsible
    Search only for PRs with a >Responsible: field of responsible.

-s state, --state=state
    Search only for PRs with a >State: field of state.

-C [yes|no], --confidential=[yes|no]
    Search only for PRs with a >Confidential: field of either yes or no, respectively. If this option is not given, all PRs will be eligible for the search, regardless of their confidentiality.

-e severity, --severity=severity
    Search only for PRs with a >Severity: field of severity.

-O name, --originator=name
    Search for name in the >Originator: field of each PR. Name need only be enough to uniquely identify the person. For example, to find "Steve Williams", you could use a name of "Steve W" to match against it. It's suggested that you use another search option (e.g., against state), to accelerate the speed of the search. Using -O by itself can tend to be slow with a large database. Note you must enclose the name with double-quotes to make sure your shell passes it as a single string, and not as separate arguments to query-pr.

-p priority, --priority=priority
    Search only for PRs with a >Priority: field of priority.

-o outfile, --output=outfile
    Print all output to outfile rather than to the standard output.

-q, --summary
    Give a short summary line for PRs.

-V, --version
    Prints the version number of send-pr. -h, --help Prints a brief usage summary.
