A shell command to open a git URL in your browser that matches your shell's current branch and working directory. Works for GitHub, BitBucket, and GitLab repositories.

Runs on Mac, Linux, Cygwin, and Windows.

npm install ghwd --global

cd myapp
git checkout mybranch
cd some/dir

ghwd
# https://github.com/bozo/myapp/tree/mybranch/some/dir

ghwd foo.js
# https://github.com/bozo/myapp/tree/mybranch/some/dir/foo.js

A g alias is created automatically to save you three keystrokes:

g foo.js

Requires the bash or zsh shell to run. Supports Mac, Linux, Cygwin and Windows by searching for one of the following openers: xdg-open, open,cygstart,start.

ghwd supports git repos from the following providers:

• github.com ssh, https and git: remotes
• bitbucket.org ssh and https remotes
• gitlab.com ssh and https remotes

If you are interested in further integration between your shell and Github, check out the hub project. It adds a git browse command which works much like this one, in addition to a number of other features.
