git-linker

Adds a GitLink command to generate a web link to the current file in the repository.

git-linker.nvim generates links based on the current git origin URL. However, it is limited to repositories that follow the GitHub URL format.

To include support for another git web provider, please provide the following information in a new issue:

The format of a web link to the file on a specific commit (e.g. to commit 4716818d, not to main)
The format of a web link to a specific line
The format of a web link to a line range
The git remote URL format for both HTTP and SSH remotes

Installation

Installation with lazy.nvim is supported:

return {
 'jgoguen/git-linker.nvim',
  opts = {
    print_url = false,
  }
}

Your Neovim configuration should, after this plugin is loaded, call :helptags ALL. This will make help available with :help git-linker.nvim or :help GitLink.

Configuration

git-linker.nvim comes with the following defaults:

{
  copy_to_clipboard = true,
  fallback_branch = nil,
  fallback_url_format = nil,
  print_url = true,
}

Any of these may be overridden by passing them to setup().

copy_to_clipboard: If this is true, the generated URL will be copied to the system clipboard (via the + register).
fallback_branch: If this is not nil, this branch will be used to resolve the commit hash if the current branch has not been pushed to origin. This is useful if your main upstream branch is something other than main or master, such as dev.
fallback_url_format: If this is not nil, and a URL format isn't found from the git remote URL, use this as the URL format string. It may be an index into config.formats, or a format string. If a format string is given, there must be four parameters:
- The host and base path (e.g. github.com/user/repo)
- The commit hash
- The file path relative to the repo root (e.g. doc/README.md)
- The line number(s) (e.g. L10 or L10-L15)
print_url: If this is true, the generated URL will be printed. This will cause a vim message to be displayed
