git-web--browse(1)
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-web--browse - git helper script to launch a web browser
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-web--browse' [OPTIONS] URL/FILE ...
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
This script tries, as much as possible, to display the URLs and FILEs
|
|
that are passed as arguments, as HTML pages in new tabs on an already
|
|
opened web browser.
|
|
|
|
The following browsers (or commands) are currently supported:
|
|
|
|
* firefox (this is the default under X Window when not using KDE)
|
|
* iceweasel
|
|
* konqueror (this is the default under KDE)
|
|
* w3m (this is the default outside graphical environments)
|
|
* links
|
|
* lynx
|
|
* dillo
|
|
* open (this is the default under Mac OS X GUI)
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
-b BROWSER|--browser=BROWSER::
|
|
Use the specified BROWSER. It must be in the list of supported
|
|
browsers.
|
|
|
|
-t BROWSER|--tool=BROWSER::
|
|
Same as above.
|
|
|
|
-c CONF.VAR|--config=CONF.VAR::
|
|
CONF.VAR is looked up in the git config files. If it's set,
|
|
then its value specify the browser that should be used.
|
|
|
|
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
The web browser can be specified using a configuration variable passed
|
|
with the -c (or --config) command line option, or the 'web.browser'
|
|
configuration variable if the former is not used.
|
|
|
|
You can explicitly provide a full path to your preferred browser by
|
|
setting the configuration variable 'browser.<tool>.path'. For example,
|
|
you can configure the absolute path to firefox by setting
|
|
'browser.firefox.path'. Otherwise, 'git-web--browse' assumes the tool
|
|
is available in PATH.
|
|
|
|
Note that these configuration variables should probably be set using
|
|
the '--global' flag, for example like this:
|
|
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
$ git config --global web.browser firefox
|
|
------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
as they are probably more user specific than repository specific.
|
|
