Task lists render with clickable checkboxes in comments. You can select or unselect the checkboxes to mark them as complete or incomplete.
|
|
|
|
Task lists render as read-only checkboxes in Markdown files. People with write permissions in the repository can edit the file to select or unselect the checkboxes.
|
|
|
|
You can view task list summary information in issue and pull request lists, when the task list is in the initial comment.

### Reordering tasks
|
|
|
|
You can reorder task lists within a single comment by clicking to the left of a task's checkbox, dragging it to a new location, and dropping it. If you have multiple lists within a comment, you can reorder tasks across the single comment. You can't add or reorder tasks across different comments.
