Description

@FedeLu01

Hey guys.

I'm trying to use socket cli locally before integrating it into a workflow.
See what's happening right now

chiter0@---:/tmp$ npm install -g "socket@1.1.152"

added 4 packages in 1s

1 package is looking for funding
  run `npm fund` for details
chiter0@---:/tmp$ cd ~/Repositories/auth
chiter0@---:~/Repositories/auth$ socket scan create . --org <MY_ORG> --no-interactive --repo auth --branch "$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)" --report
