Add a bot that automatically posts the current repository hash when issues are created
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When looking at really old tickets it is hard to know what they refer to
Describe the solution you'd like Bot that automatically gets the current git-sha when an issue is posted.
Describe alternatives you've considered Have a section that asks which version of the component the user is reporting the bug against
In my opinion, it would be nice to have the user explicitly reference their version (for cFE, OSAL, and the app of interest). I know many (most?) cFS bundles that are nowhere near the current release and it might just be "another check in the box" when someone is posting a question instead of forcing them to be aware of versioning mismatch (an easy mistake to make!).

thanks for the input! what do you mean by "another check in the box"? One challenge as I think more about this is that the bot would only report the repo's sha as opposed to the user's version. Maybe an easier way to do this is to have a command kind of like cfs --version that makes this as easy as possible for everyone. We already have this on startup but it might be nice...
Sorry I think I slightly misunderstood the bot. I thought it would provide the poster with the SHA for them to paste into the issue itself. I do like the idea of having a CLI that can provide a host of tools, including a version output. I had spoken to a couple of the community members of having some central repository (Github!) that a CLI could pull the right version of community apps down from to make installation a breeze. The Node Package Manager (NPM) could be a good template to jump off from!
