DESCRIPTION
git browse is a git-extras command that detects the current repository's remote URL and opens it in the default web browser. It recognizes GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket remotes and builds the correct web URL format for each, including deep links to a specific file and line (or line range) at the current commit or branch.SSH remotes (git@host:user/repo.git) are converted to HTTPS automatically. Without a filename, it just opens the repository's landing page for the current commit/branch.
