It would be great if this extension allowed you to use another domain for the project. I'm unsure how vscode's git integration works, but I believe the url for the remote system is in the git config; git config --get remote.origin.url should return it, but I think that depends on 'origin' as the name.

Either way, this would let you specify a custom github server (like GitHub enterprise accounts).

Bug - ".git" removed if repository name is .github.io

First of all, love the extension ❤️ 😄

Context

I have a repository abinavseelan.github.io. When I use the extension to go to a specific line, the final url that I'm taken to is https://github.com/abinavseelan/abinavseelanhub.io/blob/master/index.html#L16-L24

The .git in abinavseelan.github.io is removed.

Potential fix

Looks like the bug is originating from here https://github.com/ziyasal/vscode-open-in-github/blob/master/src/gitProvider.js#L13 🙂

I can raise a PR for this in a couple of hours 🙂

I have a .ssh/config like

Host github
  User git
  HostName github.com
  IdentityFile ~/.ssh/github

so my remote is just github:felixfbecker/whatever. I'm getting the error Unknown git provider

It would be great to have the ability to do this - often you just want to call out a file as a whole, and not a particular part of it.

I like how fugitive.vim handles it - if any lines are highlighted, you get the URL with the line range. If none are selected, you just get the plain URL - thus if you just want the current line, you just have to select the current line

Due to fact that Windows uses backslashes instead of slashes in paths the generated links are not the identical (lucky, both versions are accepted by browsers). This results in failing tests on Windows. IMO the behavior should be consistent and generated links should be identical.

I'm getting this error in the dev tools. This only seems to occur on my repositories that are git submodules.

It always open the branch tree instead of the file with selected line.

You can find more info in the Pull Request I prepared to fix it: #32

I love this extension but often I use it only to get the URL such that I can send it, comment with it etc. I think it would be awesome if, in addition to opening a browser, I could have a command that copies the target to the clipboard.

For repositories that are not on bitbucket.org (intranet hosted), the generated url uses the same structure as github. Can we make this configurable?

I have latest VSCode and I have installed the open in git hub extension.
When I do the "Open in GitHub" action I get the "No handler found for the command 'openInGitHub'"

Might it be that this extension is not working with latest VS Code?

Steps to reproduce

1. Run vscode
2. Click File | Open folder... , pick/src/
3. Close all open tabs
4. Run command "Copy GitHub link to clipboard"

Expected result

"https://github.com/ziyasal/vscode-open-in-github" in clipboard

Actual result

"https://github.com/ziyasal/vscode-open-in-github/blob/master/srcundefined" in clipboard

Environment

Tested on Windows 10, vscode 1.4.0, extension version 1.2.2.

When I click on "Open in GitHub" nothing happend.
I am using a Mac

I have a project that has both the origin/master (local: origin) and a fork/master (local: master) checked out. Although master is the active branch in my project, it opens the URL of origin in the browser.

Am I missing something or is this not supported?

The branch that is chosen for the URL is not the active branch in the local repository.
I did have a quick look and you may be able to use git-rev (https://github.com/tblobaum/git-rev) to get the active branch but only once the pull request at tblobaum/git-rev#14 has been merged in

@ziyasal thanks for building this extension, much appreciated!

When opening a file in GitHub, the URL that gets opened is in the format:

https://github.com/USER/REPO/blob/BRANCH/PATH/FILENAME#LINENUMBER

I would like the following instead (canonical format):

https://github.com/USER/REPO/blob/COMMIT_HASH/PATH/FILENAME#LINENUMBER

That way I can easily share the link with others (maybe a copy link to clipboard option?). It's not a big deal since pressing y in GitHub's UI switches to the canonical format. Would you accept a PR for this feature?

The extension does not show on my installed list and trying to use it gives the "extension.openInGitHub' not found error.

If, after installing it, I search for the extension in the extensions list it does appear to be installed by that listing:

Right now the default behavior is to open the current line of the current file in the browser.

But most of the time I just want to go the project page. It would be great I could go just to the project page, just like when there is no open document.

Hi,

Our gitlab CE only works on http (not https). Could you add a parameter (like secure or protocol) to specify if the url must start with http or https

https://github.com/ziyasal/vscode-open-in-github/blob/29788d5e0874eea35bd18caaa40299a99d934010/src/gitProvider.js#L72

Thx

Commands called programmatic, using commands.executeCommand api, have the possibility to return something. It is not widely used and even the built-in commands of vscode often do not return anything, but IMO it would be an good idea to return promise which will resolve on completion of the command. This way timeouts in tests could be removed.

When opening a sub-directory of a git repository in vscode, this extension is not able to resolve the git repository information and therefore fails to open files in the browser.

There needs to be support for finding the root repository from relative to the vscode workspace root.

Currently the plugin expect remote with name origin to be present and assumes, that user wants to retrieve a link for the project, specified in this remote.

But this is not always the case. The idea is to make user able to choose, relatively to which remote he wants URL to be constructed.

Is it possible to have either a keyboard shortcut for this command, or an entry in the Context Menu when you right click on a file?

Exception from the Developer tools window:

Sometimes it picks up the wrong repository, probably based on some other workspace (if I have multiple windows open). Not sure what's going on.

I have tried both reloading the window and restarting VS Code entirely. Neither the "Open in Github" nor "Copy Github link" commands do anything. I don't see any output in the console.

I'm using v1.3.1 of the extension, and v1.21.1 of VS Code.

Doing "Open in GitHub" on a GitLab-backed repo opens this UR:

https://host/group/project/blob/master/package.json#L-136

That's correct, except for the line number hash. The correct one is this, without the dash:

https://host/group/project/blob/master/package.json#L136

Using self-hosted GitLab 9.0.2.

I am on Mac using version 0.6.0 and when I open a file from my workspace with a path like this:

/Users/bpasero/Development/monaco/appveyor.yml

It ends up opening this in the browser:

https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/blob/master:///Users/bpasero/Development/monaco/appveyor.yml#L14

Any ideas?

Hi,

was looking forward to using this!

I've set the provider to be bitbucket, and when calling Open in Github I get this url:

https://bitbucket.org/team/project/src/branchfolder/branchname/dir1/dir2/sourcefile.swift#cl-142

which produces an error page (see below).

It looks like it needs to produce:

https://bitbucket.org/team/project/src/a285d517f4b9db31acacfee01018ace7577e939cdir1/dir2/sourcefile.swift#sourcefile.swift-142

or

https://bitbucket.org/team/project/commits/b6eac64dbc5e2859d78bb53d16c19cc561a15511

Ideally both.

More power to you!

Would be great to be able to select multiple lines, and have the opened/copied URL also have all of them, like https://github.com/ziyasal/vscode-open-in-github/blob/master/src/extension.js#L6-L13 , instead of just the line where the cursor is

I'm getting this error when I use the "Open Pull Request" command on OSX 10.12.6

Exact same issue as described here for a similar extension: d4rkr00t/vscode-open-in-github#9

I think you should add an informed message when current branch is not on Github. For the user experience, other developers can be perceived as not working. Only suggestion.

When opening a sub-directory of a git repository in vscode, this extension is not able to resolve the git repository information and therefore fails to open files in the browser.

There needs to be support for finding the root repository from relative to the vscode workspace root.

Worked was done to support this in: #27 but was subsequently reverted after merged and I am not sure why.

In the latest version of Visual Studio Code, I do not see command options for "extensions." Is it possible that they no longer support this? Doesn't make sense, I'm sure I am doing something wrong.

Hi ,
can you please help me how you add dependencies. I have added dependencies like FS and github in my extension but publisher doesnt includes those dependencies into my extension in gallery.

Links to blob as in https://github.com/org/repo/blob/branch/apps/orders/views/orders.py#L182-L183

Whereas it should be tree instead. Also if the branch doesn't yet exist on github, you get a 404. So ideally there should be an option to open the link as a branch or master.

I'm using Ubuntu 16.10 and VSCode 1.11.2 while opening on GitHub works ok, copying the link does nothing.

Ctrl+O is used in VS Code to open a different file/folder which this extension override by registering Ctrl+O Ctrl+G. The recommended plane is Ctrl+L

It would be nice if, when running the command when there's no active text editor (ie, when you first open a folder, or close editors), the extension would just open the repo's home page. Currently it just does nothing in this case.

base is...

ssh://[email protected]:22/Project%20Code/_git/reponame

The app opens...

https://myteam.visualstudio.com:22/myteam/Project%20Code/_git/reponame/blob/master/package.json#L75

The url should be...

https://myteam.visualstudio.com/Project%20Code/_git/reponame?path=%2Fpackage.json

I'm not sure if VSO changed.. but the port in place is definitely wrong, and the path isn't correcting right.

Create a new pull request using the current branch, anyone else like that idea?

Solution: #79

Reproduce: Use this function for the third level files.

It turn / to \.

Wrong link ( by Copy GitHub link to clipboard )

https://github.com/hua03/blog/blob/master/demo\code-snippets\getRandomNums.js

Correct link

https://github.com/hua03/blog/blob/master/demo/code-snippets/getRandomNums.js

Doing either open in Github or copy link to clipboard gives me "Warn: No remote found on branch". Have tried with a private repo cloned from Bitbucket server as well as a public Github repo (https://github.com/pzelnip/dotfiles)

Visual Studio Code Version 1.17.0 (1.17.0)

Love this extension! I'm coming from PHPStorm though and there's one feature it had that I would love to see with this.

Very often, I use this feature because I'm in a fresh branch, one that's not yet been pushed to Github, and I've made changes to a file and I want to see how it compares to how it originally was. I guess the "right" way to do this would be to run a git diff <filename> in Terminal, but I like Github's interface. The problem is that when I do this, I get a 404 on Github because it doesn't recognize the branch. If instead it just used the latest commit though, that would solve this problem, because the "latest commit" on a fresh branch is going to be a commit that Github already has on its server (assuming Github has the latest master, or whatever branch the current one is based from).

How hard would it be to make this change?

At the office we use a on-premise GitLab CE. It would be great if the extension could support this.

I have added this gitHubDomain setting to my workspace settings.json, but that doesn't help:

"openInGitHub.gitHubDomain": "https://gitlab.domain.local"

Obviously I put in the proper domain name, that matches the git remote. I tried with and without https. I keep getting the warning Unknown Git provider.

On-premise GitLab has exactly the same structure as GitLab.com, just the domain name is different.

Due to fact that workspace variable is equal to undefined when no workspace is open in vscode the extensions crashes on attempt to call it. IMO the extension should handle single open files(no workspace) which are in supported repo type.
