A command-line script to open the GitHub page for a repository.
gh [remote-name] [branch-name]
$ gh
> open https://github.com/REMOTE_ORIGIN_USER/CURRENT_REPO/tree/CURRENT_BRANCH
$ gh upstream
> open https://github.com/REMOTE_UPSTREAM_USER/CURRENT_REPO/tree/CURRENT_BRANCH
$ gh upstream master
> open https://github.com/REMOTE_UPSTREAM_USER/CURRENT_REPO/tree/master
On Unix systems you have several options. Namely creating an alias or a symbolic link to gh.sh
.
I prefer to create a symbolic link within /usr/local/bin/
:
ln -s /Users/jason/Documents/workspace/gh/gh.sh /usr/local/bin/gh
Note: open
my not work across all platforms. On some Linux distributions you can replace open
to xdg-open
.
