git_web_url 1.0.2

The url Subcommand

Print the web URL you can one-click to open in a web browser.

Basic Usage

cd into your git repo directory, or any folder inside, then run gwu url (or gitweburl url). It prints the URL for the current branch and current directory:

$ gwu url
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo/tree/your_branch/path/to/current_directory

Specify a File or Folder

Provide the absolute path of the file or folder in your local git repo:

$ gwu url /path/to/your_repo/path/to/your_file.py
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo/blob/your_branch/path/to/your_file.py

Branch Options

Use the --branch (or -b) flag to control which branch appears in the URL:

# Use current branch (default behavior)
$ gwu url
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo/tree/feature-branch/

# Use default branch (main/master) - URL without explicit branch
$ gwu url --branch=default
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo

# Use a specific branch
$ gwu url --branch=main
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo/tree/main/

# Short form
$ gwu url -b develop
https://github.com/your_account/your_repo/tree/develop/
