Body

If you run the gh cli, you have to authenticate. If you do so and choose to authenticate over the web, just before the web browser opens, you are given an authentication code and are taken to GitHub.

You must sign in and then enter the authentication code you were given. It is eight digits and each has a separate edit box. Problem:

The first edit box is labeled code 0.

Fine you think someone made the somewhat common error of starting at index 0 so you keep going.

Unfortunately you jump from box 3 to 5. Where di 4 go?

Either box 4 is the dash character that appears between the two groups of four digits in the number or again someone started counting properly in the second group of edit boxes. In either case this is not a good experience.

The eight edit boxes should be Code 1, Code 2, ... Code 8.
