1## git-bug bridge configure
 2
 3Configure a new bridge.
 4
 5### Synopsis
 6
 7	Configure a new bridge by passing flags or/and using interactive terminal prompts. You can avoid all the terminal prompts by passing all the necessary flags to configure your bridge.
 8	Repository configuration can be made by passing either the --url flag or the --project and --owner flags. If the three flags are provided git-bug will use --project and --owner flags.
 9	Token configuration can be directly passed with the --token flag or in the terminal prompt. If you don't already have one you can use the interactive procedure to generate one.
