I know you can close issues by putting closes #1 or fixes #1 in the commit message. What is the best way to close multiple issues in the same commit message?
Also, it appears that using fixes rather than closes doesn't create a link from the commit message to the issue, but it does close the issue. What's up with that?
Here from Github self a documentation: Linking a pull request to an issue
Resolves #10, resolves #123, resolves octo-org/octo-repo#100
"Closing issues using keywords" is a document from GitHub that describes how to close issues, tags and how to close multiple issues.
To answer your questions the answer from GitHub is:
To close multiple issues, preface each issue reference with one of the above keywords. You must use the keyword before each issue you reference for the keyword to work.
For example, This closes #34, closes #23, and closes example_user/example_repo#42 would close issues #34 and #23 in the same repository, and issue #42 in the "example_user/example_repo" repository.
