ozanmakes / github-browse-file Goto Github PK

I just did M-x github-browse-file for the first time, and it showed me a 404. It made me sad.

The URL it opened in the browser was https://github.com/Internetworkexpert/ine-rackcontrol/blob/rsfive-65/rackcontrol/load_whole_rack_config.py. The correct URL would have been https://github.com/Internetworkexpert/ine-rackcontrol/blob/RSFIVE-65/rackcontrol/load_whole_rack_config.py -- the difference is in the spelling of the branch name. I assume this happened because my local branch is indeed spelled differently than the remote branch:

(rack):) 11:06:38 [erichanchrow@Eric-Hanchrows-iMac ine-rackcontrol] (rsfive-65)$ git branch -vv
...
* rsfive-65                            ae31b72 [origin/RSFIVE-65] Merge branch 'prd-rackscr01' into rsfive-65

... so I assume that you are assuming that the remote branch's name is the same as the local branch's.

This will allow the project to be published on MELPA Stable.

Hi!

Running github-browse-file without a selection works great in evil mode; however, when I run with a selection '<,'>github-browse-file I get the following error:

Invalid function: decf

Any help would be appreciated.

When invoking github-browse-file with a range of commits selected in e.g. magit-log, it'd be nice to open /compare/rev_a...rev_b instead, to take you to the compare view.

I'm not sure whether that's possible, though. I took a quick look at this and magit - and while I've not really written much lisp so far, I can't find anything like magit-commits-in-mark or so in magit. Am I missing something, or would magit first need something like that?

GitHub has URL API parameters to jump to file specific position.
I think github-browse-file support this will be very helpful when github jump to the location at initial.

I'm often needing to show someone a piece of a file that I have locally.... I use my local emacs to find the part in the file and then I want to give them a github url.

Ideally I'd be able to:

C-u M-x github-browse-url

and it would insert the url into my kill-ring.

PS I LOVE THIS THING!

I'm often looking at a file on a particular line and I want to use gh somehow to look at just that line.

It would be really useful, if when I did M-x github-browse-file, it just picked up my current line and added it to the url.

Just recently switched from Vim to Spacemacs, which includes this package for browsing Github. My company uses Github enterprise at work so it'd be nice if we could specify a Github domain like we can do for vim-fugitive. By setting a variable in the ~/.vimrc, you could tell Fugitive where to open Github links. Fugitive somehow figures out the right path (Github Enterprise vs. Github.com).

Usage in vim-fugitive:

1. Set let g:fugitive_github_domains = ['github.com', 'git.musta.ch']
2. :Gbrowse is now configured to properly look up from the list of Github domains.
