           # need to 1) manually push local branch to upstream so that branch exists there, 2) make source_branch equal to that thing - maybe will require making the branch after making the issue so that i can grab the issue number?, 3) make the target branch exactly equal to 'development' but maybe i can use the api to get the default branch name which might be development?, 4) figure out how to do the substitution properly so that it'll put the actual issue number in there instead of the word ISSUE
