      repo_name
          The name of the repository for which to list issues. This argument is
          required, either passed via the CLI, or defined in the configured
          profile. A ``repo_name`` passed as a CLI argument will override the
          repo_name defined in the configured profile, if provided.
  
      profile
          The name of the profile configuration to use. Defaults to ``github``.
  
      state
          The state of the milestone. Either ``open``, ``closed``, or ``all``.
          Default is ``open``.
  
      sort
          What to sort results by. Either ``due_on`` or ``completeness``. Default
          is ``due_on``.
  
      direction
          The direction of the sort. Either ``asc`` or ``desc``. Default is ``asc``.
  
      output
          The amount of data returned by each issue. Defaults to ``min``. Change
          to ``full`` to see all issue output.
  
      per_page
          GitHub paginates data in their API calls. Use this value to increase or
          decrease the number of issues gathered from GitHub, per page. If not set,
          GitHub defaults are used.
  
      CLI Example:
  
      .. code-block:: bash
  
          salt myminion github.get_milestones
