Github Launch

I find Github's web interface very powerful and familiar, so I created a tool to help launch common Github URLs from the command-line.

It doesn't do anything fancy or even use the API. It just builds & launches Github URLs to help save time and/or a bunch of bookmarks.

It is mostly intended for OSX where the open command launches the default browser. Currently, on other platforms the URL will be printed instead.

Built with Thor and Grit. Pull Requests welcome!

Here is some example usage:

# Open page for specific commit
$ ghl show 1d780099df

# Open page for last commit
$ ghl show

# Open file browser for specific branch
$ ghl branch topic123

# Open file browser for current branch
$ ghl branch

# Open the Network view
$ ghl network

# Open page to create pull request from current branch to master
$ ghl pull master

Be sure to check out the help via ghl help for full command listing.
