gerep / git-open Goto Github PK

It would be really cool if the Github repo shown in the browser was for the branch currently active in the terminal window. As it is, opengit will by default open the master branch (or other default if you've set it manually).

Note that this is different than the existing opengit remote-branch syntax, in that the new default would be the (appropriate) remote branch matching the current local branch; if you were on a branch and wanted to open master, then use opengit master.

I was trying to find a way of adding an autocomplete script to a subcommand but I couldn't find a way.

Reading the git-completion.bash I noticed that it has a pattern for the function names. For instance _git_stash().

So it came to me and I created the function _git_open() and it works perfectly!

This is a temporary proposal: (this is inside my .profile)

function _git_open()
{
	local word=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
	COMPREPLY=($(compgen -W "$(git branch -r)" -- "${word}"))

}

complete -F _git_open git-open

The only downside so far is that it lists only remote branches.

When testing local branches with COMPREPLY=($(compgen -W "$(git branch | sed)" -- "${word}")), for some reason, it was also listing the files and directories.

After using hub browse for a while, which does a similar job, I wrote this:

#!/bin/bash

branch=$(git name-rev --name-only HEAD)
if [ -z "$branch" ]; then
  echo >&2 "Cannot determine branch. Detached head? Using 'master'"
  branch="master"
fi
tracking_remote=$(git config branch.$branch.remote)
if [ -z "$tracking_remote" ]; then
  echo >&2 "No remote branch found for branch $branch. Using 'origin'"
  tracking_remote="origin"
fi
remote_url=$(git config remote.$tracking_remote.url)
if [ -z "$remote_url" ]; then
  echo >&2 "No remote url found for remote $tracking_remote."
  exit 1
fi

remote=$(echo "$remote_url"|sed -e 's/git@/http:\/\//;s/net:/net\//;s/.git$//')
commit=$(git --no-pager log -n1 --pretty=format:%H)
if [ -n "$1" ] ; then
  path="blob/$commit/$1"
else
  path="tree/$commit"
fi
if [ -n "$2" ] ; then
  start="#L$2"
fi
if [ -n "$3" ] ; then
  end="-L$3"
fi
open "$remote/$path$start$end"

... my use case was usually to share a link to a specific file or lines from a file to a slack room, so my script ('gitlink') took a file and optionally line numbers as args. I pick up the current branch instead of taking a branch as an arg. I also link to a specific commit instead of the branch, to prevent historical links bitrotting. Anyway, feel free to use/ignore any of this.

It's opening the url https://bitbucket.org/https://ericbiewener@bitbucket/branch/master, which isn't valid.

Namely, it uses xdg-open, which is a common (Arch/Ubuntu/others) Linux command to open the Github URL. The equivalent command in OS X is open.

Open bitbucket projects

.git/config:

[remote "origin"]
  9   url = [email protected]:mojolingo/Telephony-Dev-Box.git
 10   fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

$ opengit then opens https://github.com/mojolingo/Telephony-Dev-Box%0Amojolingo/Telephony-Dev-Box

@Yeraze suggested to change the name to git-open and instead of using opengit, use git open

github.yourcompany.com

If my repository is this https://github.com/WeAreTech/wearetech.io/ then git-open ignores the .io and tries to open this: https://github.com/wearetech/wearetech/tree/master
instead of: https://github.com/wearetech/wearetech.io/tree/master

git-open /path/to/file

and have the browser open that file in the current branch
