Open a GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, or Codeberg branch or file from your terminal.

sudo make install
# To remove it:
sudo make uninstall

Open the current branch:

$ git open

or specify the branch

$ git open remote_branch

and also the file

$ git open remote_branch file_path

File paths are relative to the repository root. Quote paths containing spaces. The command uses origin and checks locally cached remote branches; run git fetch origin if a branch is missing. In detached HEAD mode, specify a branch.

HTTPS, HTTP, scp-style SSH, and ssh:// remotes are supported. Self-hosted GitLab and GitHub hosts named gitlab.* and github.* retain their original host.

Use git open --help for usage.

Bash and Git are required. Linux also requires xdg-utils; macOS uses open.

Run make test with Python 3 installed. Tests use temporary Git repositories and a mocked browser opener.
